Default Import/Export

Trying to move files. Import/Export is NOT an option under file. (Office
2007 and VISTA). Where is it? Or where did it go?

What are you trying to achieve? If you are wanting to move Outlook data from
one machine to another then do NOT use import/export, as posted here many
many times. Just copy the pst file. If that is NOT what you are trying to
do, then re-post with some more details.

Default Import/Export

Thank you. I would like to have it on a flash drive to carry with me. I
will copy the file. All the help in Outlooks says to go to File and
import/export - and I did not have that available. Guess that is why.
Thanks again.

Be very careful in connecting Outlook with a pst file on a flash drive.
Normally it should be OK, but I would make numerous backups to avoid any
corruption...

Why do you think you need to use Export/Import to move Outlook files?

Obviously because Outlook Help told him to...
Who are these people who write these Help files...?
