Default I can't access my contacts from the export file part. How to fix?

I recently migrated to Outlook 2003 with a new laptop and basically took my
old Outlook file (.pst) from my old computer and replaced it with the fresh
one with my laptop. The contacts, tasks, etc can be seen if I click on
contacts, but I cannot export them as there is nothing to choose under
"Contacts". The Contacts also don't automatically pop up when I write half
off an email address, which is also bothersome. How can I fix this?

I found this link but it doesn't help:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...Product=ol2002
I have done steps 1-3, but when I choose to export, there is no folder that
appears for me to export.

Your post is quite vague. Explain more clearly what you are trying to do.
Are you trying to export your Contacts to some other file format? Are you
trying to view them in the address book? Something else?
The behavior with autocompletion is expected. Autocompletion has nothing to
do with your Contacts and you have not yet populated an autocompletion
cache.

If you replaced your old PST with the fresh one from your new laptop, then
you've descroyed your old data.
