I exported my contacts with the catergories in a pst folder. I need to
install exsiting categories on another computer. When I import my contacts I
lose my created catergories in the "Master Category List". How do I get my
created categories into the "Master Category List" without having to retype
them.

Version of Outlook?

Do you have access to the old computer? If so, add all the categories to an
item - then copy the list of categories from the 'items belong to these
categories' field in the categories dialog (or from the categories field on
the item) and paste it into a text file. move it to the new computer and
paste the list into that field.
