I want to forward my Contact Folder to another team member. There are
approximately 200 names in this folder.

Can I assume you have no sharing server like Exchange? If you don't, then
create a PST (File>New>Outlook Data File), copy your Contacts folder to it,
close that PST, stop Outlook (to detach the PST from the mail profile so
that it doesn't get damaged), zip the PST or rename its extension to
something other than ".pst" so Outlook doesn't block it on the receiving
end, start Outlook, and mail it as an attachment. The recipient can save
the attachment and either unzip it or rename it, then open it in Outlook
with File>Open>Outlook Data File. If you and the recipient both use the
same version of Outlook or you have Outlook 97-2002 (the recipient can have
any version), then this should work.
 
Brian,

Thank you for this information. We are on an Exchange Server. I tried your
method, but winzip won't allow me to rename the pst. Any further suggestions.

If you're on an Exchange server, just share your contacts. No transfer
needed.
