Moving copy of contacts to new compture

[Jim Fisk]

I used the instructions in help (ha011053931033.aspx). When I try to copy
the file (backup file) to disc I get an error. It says an error occured do
you want to retry or cancel. I t won't work.

List all the steps you used more clearly. Be sure you include how you
created this file and moved it to a CD. You seem to be having problems with
your file transfers, not Outlook.

select drive e where ther CD is I get message saying "file access denied you
do not have permission requies to access file.

Yes, of course you would. You aren't following the direction is the article
at all.
You cannot access a PST file on a CD. You must have read/write access to a
PST file. Move the file to your hard drive and remove its read only
attribute.
Then do not import it. Open it.
