    I am trying to save my e-mail addresses / contacts to a new folder in my documents.

    I have previously saved these to folders which I have created in my documents.

    I now appear to have memory loss as to how I achieved this in the past.

    Would someone out there please remind me how to save my e-mail addresses to a folder.

    :rolleyes:

    1. On the File menu, point to Import and Export...
    2. Click Export to a file, and then click Next.
    3. In the list, click the file type you want to export to and then click Next.
    4. Select Contacts folder.
    5. Save it in My Documents and put a name for it.
    6. Follow the rest of the steps shown on the screen until completion.

    Let us know what happens!

    Hi GeoffFl

    I have attempted to use your instructions.

    Until :-

    It asks what type of "create of file of type "

    It then presents me the following options:

    Comma Separated Values (DOS)
    Comma Separated Values (Windows)
    Microsoft Access
    Microsoft Excel
    Personal File.pst
    Tab Separated Values (DOS)
    Tab Separated Values (Windows)


    I have tried all, bar DOS, but the new contacts folder is not created with my new ones included into my new folder.

    So I appear to be back to square one

    Meanwhile thanks and over to you.
