Outlook 2003 - Master Categories List

[Wayne]

We are in the process of migrating from Outlook 2000 to
Outlook 2003. Everything going well so far except for
Categories. We have a list of a couple of hundred
categories that is used by our staff. In Outlook 2000 we
were able to export the categories from the registry and
import them on another computer. I have searched the
Knowledge Base and have not found an article on this for
Outlook 2003. Additionally, I have added a couple of
items into Master Categories and then searched my
registry and did not find the items.

Couple of questions.

1. Can I export categories from one machine running
Outlook 2003 and import on another?

2. Where are the categories stored in Outlook 2003?

Thanks for your help.
