Hi,

Is there a way to copy or export a contacts folder from
one PC to another. I have contacts in Outlook on my home
PC I wish to copy and add them to a new Outlook folder on
my work PC.

Thanks
Frank
 
Create a new .PST file on the home computer, copy your contacts to it, then
take the .PST to work and open it in Outlook there (File | Open). Then you
can copy the contacts to your .PST file at work.

Two hints:
a) If you use Outlook 2003 at home and an earlier version at work, you will
need to create the new .PST file in the old Outlook 97-2002 format, or you
won't be able to open it at work.
b) Make sure Outlook is closed on your home PC before you copy the file to
other media for transport to work. If you plan to move the file to the
media instead of copy it, close it out of Outlook first -- right click its
root folder and click Close.
