    Microsoft Outlook
    « on: November 06, 2007, 07:27:52 AM »
    I recently got a new laptop, Dell Inspiron 1501 with Vista Home basic. I have setup Outlook, 2007, and renewed all my contacts. I have two other laptops which are installed with Windows XP and Outlook 2003. I have made many changes in the contacts and would like to install them on the XP computers. I have created a backup .pst file from the Vista computer but the XP's don't recognize or permit the installation of the more current version, 2007. Is there anyway to change or utilize the more current contact .pst file in the old 2003 Outlook. It would save a heck of alot of typing.

      Under the export/save as options, is there not a list of file types?

      Pick one both machines show.

      Right, such as Comma Separated Values or Tab Separated Values.
