I have just bought a new computer and I am trying to move all my contact information in Microsoft Outlook from the old computer to the new computer, but there does not seem to be an obvious way to do it. I use XP Pro on both machines, When I try exporting, it only lets me convert the file into another file format. I don't want to convert the file, just copy it. I would have thought it would be easy. What am I missing

Simply copy your *.pest (mailbox) and *.pub (address book) files
to the new machine, and then point them out to Outlook. Tools > Email
Accounts > View or Change....

Minor correction: Simply copy your *.pst (mailbox)..... (Gotta
watch that spell checker more carefully.)
