Exporting Outlook 2000 Contacts into Outlook Express 6 issue

[Katty]

From Outlook 2000, I export a file (Comma Separated
Values (Windows)) and then from Outlook Express 6, I Import
the Text File.
Everything works great, except that I don't know where did the
groups go, any ideas?

Groups? Not sure what you mean. Outlook does not use groups.

I have the same problem and notice that Russ Valentine replied more than once
saying Outlook doesn't use groups. Well - if he wants to be specific and
call them distribution lists can he or anyone else explain how to export
them??? The question is valid and deserves a better reply

Had you kept reading you would have found the question answered by me
innumerable times. DL's cannot be exported. You will also see posted
innumerable times that exporting is never the correct way to transfer
Outlook data. You copy and reuse PST files, you do no export.
