How move Distribution Lists to another computer? Mac to Win?

How do I move a Distribution List from Entourage Mac to Outlook Windows?

I've retired a Mac, the person was using Entourage 2004, and had some
Distribution Lists set up.

She now has a Windows XP machine, using Outlook 2002. We're using an
Exchange Server.

Are Distribution Lists stored locally? Is there a way to move them from Mac
Entourage to the new Windows computer?

thanks,
Bill

If you're using Exchange, the DLs should be in the Contacts folder of the
mailbox and accessible from any Exchange client, including Outlook and
Entourage.

Thanks for your response. However, I can't find a Contacts Folder. I see
"Contacts" under "Outlook Today." I see Public Folders and Personal Folders,
but neither have Contacts in them.

Could you tell me where the contacts folder should be? Or if it's not there,
does that mean that the Distribution Lists have been stored locally?

Thanks,
Bill

Perhaps microsoft.public.outlook.mac would be a better place to continue.
I've never seen Entourage.
