Contacts B'days not on Calendar after transfer to another computer
after reading several post. It seems that using export / import is not a good
idea. Could someone give me instructions on transferring my Outlook contacts from one computer to another effectively so the Birthdays of the contacts automatically show on my calender as they did on the other computer.

Your post makes no sense. Had you read the information I posted you would
know why. All Outlook data exists in a single file (not a folder). Contacts are not separate from the rest of your Outlook data. You open an Outlook data file with Outlook, not Windows Explorer. Reconcile your post with the information I posted. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Keith" wrote in message ...

Contacts B'days not on Calendar after transfer to another comp
The question is very simple. When I go to the Outlook file in my C drive
how do I open Outlook file and transfer only the Contacts? I'm using Outlook 2003. Could someone give me the instructions rather than a link.

As Russ said already, you don't "go to the file". Open Outlook. Click FileOpenOutlook Data File. ALL your Outlook data is in it. Open the Contacts folder it contains. That's where your contacts reside. Could someone give me the instructions rather than a link. The link Russ gave you points to a web page that contains explicit instructions. Read them. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

For crying out loud. Do you need to be spoon-fed? Read them all. Learn
something along the way We are not nannies. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Keith" wrote in message ... he gave me three links Brian. Which would you suggest?
