Default How do I transfer my contacts from outlook to outlook express

Thanks for your help. It seems like I did eventually get it but it's still
not showing up. I believe it's a problem on my outlook side, so I'm going to
have to try a forum to ask questions there. Thanks.

After furious head scratching, kwyle asked:

| I hope you're not getting frustrated with me, but I didn't have much
| luck tryingt to export. Outlook didn't give me csv as a format to
| export. I went to file, than import and export. They gave me one
| option to export. I clicked export to a file. The options that are
| than given to me a
| Comma Seperated Values (DOS)
| Comma Seperated Values (Windows)
| dbase
| Microsoft Access
| Microsoft Excel
| Microsoft FoxPro
| Personal Folder File (.pst)
| Tab Separated Values (DOS)
| Tab Separated Values (Windows).
