Upgrading Outlook

[Guest]

Ciao,
I would upgrade Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2002 XP, saving my address folder.
Looking into Address Folder/File, I have seen that Import/Export is not
highlighted.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thank you in advance,
Jordan

You don't need to do this. Your addresses should all be in your contacts
folder, which is part of your PST file - all your data is in PST files. Make
a backup copy before upgrading (you should make regular backups anyway -
search your PC for *.pst, including hidden/system folders if applicable) and
run the upgrade - it won't delete your data unless your computer explodes or
something.
