Default No destination folder to choose when importing from CSV

Hi everyone. I exported my contacts list from my outlook account at
work, and wish to import these into my Outlook account at home. But
after I choose the file to import and move to the "Select Destination
folder" screen on the import wizard, the screen is blank and I cannot
choose where to import the file to, and move on to the next screen.
Is there a reason for this? I've trawled the internet for an answer,
but nothing I found has helped. 'm fully patched on Outlook 2003. My
work account is a Exchange mailbox account, and my account at home is
POP3.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks in advance

Steve

Default No destination folder to choose when importing from CSV

Instead of exporting to CSV I would export from Exchange to a PST file, then
take that PST file home and open it in Outlook there. See
http://www.howto-outlook.com/Howto/backupandrestore.htm for a good tutorial
on backing up and restoring Outlook data, and
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/sync.htm for help with synchronizing
Outlook data between two machines.
