where is the file containing the contact names in outlook 2007

[John M]

I would like to know where the file containing the Contact list is kept. On
Outlook Express it was kept in a wab file. I wish to back it up but can't
seem to find any information from Microsoft on how to do that.

All Outlook data is in one file. The file you need is your Personal Folders
file (*.pst) It's where all the mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer:
