Re: EXPORTING CONTACTS

Thanks, but that didn't help.

After opening Contacts, when I right-click in the empty area to the right of
the toolbar, there is NO option to customize. The only choices on the
Contacts tool bar are File - Edit - View - Tools - Help. The only options
when I right-click the right end of the Contacts tool bar are Google - Show
Norton Toolbar - Lock the Toolbar.

Also when I open Contacts, it displays as an Explorer folder. Don't know if
it matters, but to organize my contacts so I don't have to look at every one
of them when choosing addresses, I've put them into sub-folders - e.g.
archive, business, pix, personal, etc. I wonder if the Contacts file/folder
has to be in a specific location.

Having recently helped a buddy to set up his Vista Mail & Contacts, I
realize there are additional items on his Contacts toolbar that I don't
have - including Import & Export. His setup is similar to mine.

I wonder if it's time to remove/re-install Mail.

In Windows Mail, click on Tools, then Windows Contacts. In the empty
space at the right side of this new window, right click, then click on
Customize This Folder, then the triangle, then Contacts, then Apply, then
OK, then close the Contacts Window and open it again. See if Export
now appears on its toolbar.
