You shouldn't be using the Personal Address Book. That's their only to
provide backward compatibility with some older Microsoft Mail programs. All
address information in Outlook 2002 is kept in the Contacts folder. Back up
Outlook data by following the information here:

Hi Craig,

I agree with Brian that we are recommended use Outlook Address Book/Contact
folder in Outlook 2002. It is a more extensible and compatible data format
for most applications. However, if you'd still like to back up or export
Personal Address Book (PAB) to Outlook Address Book (OAB), please refer to:
