Copy Contacts/Address different users

[Jonathan]

I had to set up a new profile on XP Home and I want to copy all by
Contacts and my address book and for that matter the mail folders and
contents from User 1 (which still exists on this machine) to the new
User 2 profile. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do it.
Any suggestions please? Thanks.

Why not just use the same PST file in the new profile?

That helps, thanks. I'm new to Outlook and have no idea what
information is stored in which files. Also, it did move my Contacts,
but it doesn't get my address book moved to the new user. Is there an
easy way to transfer the Outlook address book of User 1 to User 2?
Thanks.

There is no address book. All Outlook data is in the PST file.
What makes you think you are missing some information? You probably just
need to reset your Outlook Address Book configuration.
