3)     In the "Select the folder to export from" list, click to select the Outlook item folder you want to back up. For example, select your Contacts folder to back up your Contacts in a different .pst file.
4)     Click Next.
5)     In the "Save exported file as" box, type the path and file name of a destination .pst file or click Browse and select a destination .pst file.
