When I try to copy contacts on to my computer, which I have Outlook 2002,
from my other computer, which has Outlook 2003, it tells me that my "back.pst
file is not compatable with this version of the Personal Folders information
service." What do I do?

The default Outlook 2003 pst file uses a different format to that of prior
versions.
In Outlook 2003 you need to create a new Personal Folder (make sure you
choose the 97-2002 option) and copy your contacts to that. Then close
Outlook and copy the newly created file to your other machine.
