Hi

Is it possible to import automatically contacts from a outlook.pst
file to another outlook.pst file in a different computer?

Ask in a programming group. Importing is always a poor choice for
transferring Outlook data, however.

You can add another file with the AddStore method, then iterate though a
contact folder of it, and copy or move found items to the default store.

Please use for programming related questions e.g.:
microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba

Why not simply transfer the entire PST, open it in Outlook, and take what
you want from it?

Brian, we have over hundred user and our staff changes quite often and
users can't (=3Dwon't) learn how to import contacts allthough I have
teached them it many,many times. So, I want only to make me less to
do;)
