I just had to replace my hard drive and of course I lost everthing in my address book...e-mails and addresses that are lost and really hard to get back. My question is, can the address book (or contacts) be saved/backed up to a disk? and if so how? I can't seem to save mine to a disk...any help would be appreciated. I would like to be able to save it and if this ever happens again, ugh!!, I can just replace it from the disk. Is it easier to save the Outlook Express address book
Thank you
Gayle
 
Outlook does not use a separate address book.
The file you need to back up is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's
where all the mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup:
