There are many Outlook books that would cover this. Outlook 200_? I would
certainly recommend Ken Slovak's book Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft
Office Outlook 2003

If your contacts are in another .pst file, then you can use Outlook to open
the old .pst file as well (File--Open--Outlook Data File (I think this
reads: Personal Folder File in versions prior to Outlook 2003))
Then you can expand the old .pst and drag and drop the contacts you want in
the new .pst.

Will that do it?

I created another profile, and it is using an entirely different .pst file
and address book. Using a different pst file is ok. How can i import the
address book from my default outlook profile in to the profile i just
created?
I have attempted this a few times and have had to go to my restore point
numerous time...lol.. I went to some help pages on Microspft but most of
what i saw was for Outlook Express, I have Ooutlook 200. Is there an
Outlook for Dummies book? thanks
