Issues attempting to export Contacts from Outlook 2000 to 2007
Tried exporting as an .xls and an Access file but only partial info shows up.
Anyone know of a work around to a third party piece of software that can help me out? Outlook 2000 is on an older XP machine while Outlook 2007 is currently a trial version on a new 64bit system. Thanks for your assistance. John |

Issues attempting to export Contacts from Outlook 2000 to 2007
While we certainly have the products to do what your asking - real question
is "Why are you exporting?" (for the scenario described) Based on the info provided - would strongly suggest the following: #1) copy your PST file from O'2000 machine to the new machine #2) open the old PST file in O'2007 --- depending on your requirements either --- #3) copy whatever info is required from the old PST folders to the corresponding ones in O'2007 and then close the old PST file (this would be done by copying the contents of the folders VERSUS copying the folders themselves)......OR #4) make the old PST file your new default for O'2007 and close/remove the one created by default in O'2007 * benefit of step #3 is that you will end up with an up-to-date PST file type which for the long-term would be a better way to go If the sole purpose is to move info from the old to new machines - import/export is never the best approach regardless of software used to perform the task.
