I have more questions reguarding the post you sent me.

I don't understand. How do I make a new pst file?
How do I copy the contacts into it?
And most importantly, how do I connect up the other installation to this new pst file? Remember, my pst file home page is grayed out and I can't see where it is. Thanks for your help

Exporting is a good way to lose data.
Instead, create a new PST file. Name it whatever you want so that you'll
remember it. Copy your Contacts into it.
Then open that PST file in the other installation and copy the Contacts into
that PST file. Then close the PST file you moved over.

I would like to export my personal folders, in particular my updated
contacts folders, from one computer to another. I have office on both
computers. IN the past, I could export the personal folders and then check
the properties for my contacts and assign the backup folder to be the one
that would be seen by the program. However, the folder is not obvious to me.
It is grayed out. How can I do what I've done in the past. Thanks.
