If you don't, then create a PST (FileNewOutlook Data File), copy your Contacts folder to it, close that PST, stop Outlook (to detach the PST from the mail profile so that it doesn't get damaged), zip the PST or rename its extension to something other than ".pst" so Outlook doesn't block it on the receiving end, start Outlook, and mail it as an attachment. The recipient can save the attachment and either unzip it or rename it, then open it in Outlook with FileOpenOutlook Data File. If you and the recipient both use the same version of Outlook or you have Outlook 97-2002 (the recipient can have any version), then this should work. -- Brian Tillman |

Brian,
Thank you for this information. We are on an Exchange Server. I tried your method, but winzip won't allow me to rename the pst. Any further suggestions.
