Need to export/import Contact (2003) from 1 computer to another

[grammie moos]

How to I export and import contacts from and to Outlook 2003. I need to do
this because I have a newer computer (not new, just newer). Help. I don't
know whether to export as a csv or as an excel file. Please Help. I'm tired
of working with this.

You don't use import/export AT ALL. This is posted here on a more-than once
a day basis....

Thanks you, Gordon. I've already have the outlook.pst file in and all my old
email is there, but my contacts are not. I've transferred all my signatures
and rules. What is the next step to get my contact in the new email account?

Outlook 2003

The pst file contains ALL your Outlook data, including contacts. When you
open the file in Outlook, do you not see a second Contacts folder under
Contacts?

YW! That had ME foxed the first time it happened, I was used to seeing
Contacts in the folder list instead of a second entry under Contacts...
