In Outlook 2003 I export CONTACTS by clicking

"File" and then "Import and Export"

That brings up the Import and Export Wizard which has a list box that the
first entry is "Export to a File". That gets a list of output file types
which includes various comma and tab seperated text files, Access and Excel.

If I pick Access it gives me a list of Folders to Export from. Since I have
about 10 sub folders within my contacts folder I have to do it 10 times once
for each sub folder.

Don't know how to do the address book itself seperately from CONTACTS
though.
