Re: Export Contacts

I don't have an "Export" option on the "File" menu.

Re: Export Contacts

Hi,

Make sure you're not doing it from an open piece of mail, but from the
program itself.

Re: Export Contacts

John

That screen shot shows that you are looking at the Contacts folder in
Windows Explorer.

Open Windows Mail and select File/Export/Contacts.

Here's a link to the MS page about importing/exporting Contacts. Are you
doing this?

Addendum to my previous post - as others told you, you need to show the
menubar and you aren't doing that according to your picture. Press ALT
and you should then get the menubar. Here's a link:

Re: Export Contacts

Your Contacts folder has apparently switched from it's proper default
template.
Open Contacts
Right-click on a blank area of the right pane, and select "Customize this
folder"
in the pull-down box, select "Contacts"
ok
