Transfer Outlook 2003 contacts back to Outlook 2002

I have Outlook 2003 on my home laptop and desktop, but I have Outlook 2002 at
my work location (government). I want to import my Outlook 2003 contacts in
a Personal Folders File (PST) into my office contacts, but it isn’t
compatible with this version of the Personal Folders information service, as
the following error message alludes to.

“The file (C:/folder/folder/folder/file.pst) is not compatible with this
version of the Personal Folders information service. Contact your
administrator.�

Does anyone know how I can get my contacts into Outlook 2002 without
re-entering all the information? Is there a conversion tool, or are you
supposed to maintain positive forward momentum and not go backwards?

Thank you
Roger Cox

Create a new .pst file in Outlook 97-2002 format and export your contacts to
there. Or export them to a .csv file.
