Exporting Outlook 2003 Contact list

L

Lisa Delafield

I exported a users Outlook 2003 contact list and imported it into Outlook
2007. The contacts are there but the groupts they created are not. Do groups
export?

Export and Import for .PST files is broken, it loses data and causes profile
corruption. With Outlook 2003 closed, make a COPY of the .PST file
containing the contacts, take the copy to the Outlook 2007 installation,
place it in a folder where it will NOT overwrite any existing .PST files,
make sure the file isn't set Read Only, open Outlook 2007 and open the .PST
file using 'File|Open|Outlook Data File', then drag the required contacts
from the copy .PST and drop them into the Contacts folder of your choice.
