Backing up Address book

[JPStewrat]

I'm running Outlook 2002, SP3. I want to back up the
address book but the backup utility doesn't seem to do
it. I looked in the knowledge base and it says to back up
a "PAB" file. Yet a search of my hard drive shows no such
beast. What file or files am I looking for?

Outlook does not use a .pab - it uses Contacts. If you backup your contacts
(export to a .pst file), you should be fine. Or just copy the entire .pst
file.
