I'm using Outlook 2003 and it connects to an Exchange 2003 server.<br />
<br />
I already have periodic 7 day archiving enabled so I have PST file on my local computer for the archived copy.<br />
<br />
The most important information for me that I cannot live without is the data in the Contacts folder. How do I make a backup of only the Contacts and put it in a flash drive for safe keeping? This way I can also export it to another Outlook install on a different computer. What are the steps I need?
