outlook contacts - where are they?????????????

I have a desktop and a laptop. when i am going away from home i copy all the stuff on my desktop to my laptop using a great bit of software called dantz retrospect. anyway, one of the things i copy over is my outlook pst file, and it works great.

apart from one thing.

everybody i have spoken to, and every post or info site on the net i have ever seen, tells me that the contacts are stored in the pst file. Well when i copy the pst over to the laptop all the mails and everything are there but the contacts are not.

so where are they??

any help would be appreciated. this is annoying.

oh check this out. before i posted here i was searching on google for an answer. this person is posting exactly the same question as me but no-one really answered him at all. i am hoping someone on this much better informed forum will have the answer.

 

If they where stored in Outlook, they are in the .pst file. If they where in the Addressbook, then they would be in a .WAB file.

 

thanks for the reply. i appear to have fixed it but god knows what i did

 

Is your Address Book on the lappy set to show "Contacts" in the dropdown selection?

Oooops, sorry, was on hold.
