importing Groups into your address book

[Elizabeth Noble]

Hi,

I have had to change computers on a network. I tried to
transfer my outlook and everything went except the groups
I had created. In my new address book the group names
appear but there are no group members.

I transfered my Outlook by creating a PST file using the
export function then imported it. When I try to just
export the address book from its menu the export option
is greyed out.

Any suggestions as I really do not want to re-enter all
my groups.

Thank you
Liz

If you still have access to the original .PST file, just re-use it on
the new computer instead of importing from it. You should retain your
groups if you do that.

That's true, also, the groups do go away. There are

third party tools that will retain your groups for you,
available from zdnet.com and they're about $30.
