Default Where to find address book

Yes, I know this is an old old subject, but I can't find where Outlook 2002
is storing my contacts.

I don't find any files *.wab or *.pab

I am wondering if my contact list might be imbedded in the Outlook.pst
file.

I haven't done anything unusual - just regular Outlook and Outlook Express
functions. I do share addresses with other Microsoft products like WORD
and ACCESS.

Thanks for any enlightment

Ted

Enlighten surrounds you.
Posted here every day is the answer to your question. Just look at the post
immediately preceding yours.
I will repost, of course.
All Outlook data resides in one file.
The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the
mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer:
