I am setting up a new computer and have Outlook 2003 on this one and Outlook
2002 on the old. I was able to copy the contacts to the new Outlook, but the
email addresses are not there. Every time I want to send an email, I have to
go back to the old computer. Please help!
Thanks in advance.
 
Can't. You've provided no information.
Explain how you copied your Contacts without managing to include their email
addresses.
Define "not there." Not where?
 
Russ, thanks for your reply. Sorry, I'm new at this. I exported the 2002
contacts as a .pst file. I didn't make any special modifications to specify
"no email addresses, please." When I imported into new computer, the names
and phone numbers went across, but not the email addresses. They are there in
the old computer, though. Is there a better way to import the complete
contact list?
Many thanks.

Definitely. Use exporting only if you want to lose or misplace data.
Otherwise, you should just copy the Outlook Data File (PST file) that
contains your Contacts and open it in the other installation. You can then
either configure Outlook to use it as your default file, or copy the
Contacts from it to your new default Contacts folder.
