I've been having problems moving Outlook from one PC to another. Not using
Exchange. All email stored on PC's. Moving outlook.pst is OK. Ditto for
exporting and then importing Calendar, Notes, Journals, Tasks, etc. but when
it comes to Contacts they show fine on the Navigation Pane on the left but
when clicking on To in an email you get an error when you click on it and
then when if comes up it shows Contacts with nothing in it but if you click
on the down arrow you see another Contacts and it has the Contacts in it.

This is a classical problem. It's the "Outlook Adressbook Provider"
running mayhem.

You didn't which version Outlook you're running, which is pretty much vital.

Anyway, what you need to is to enter the Mail settings in the System
Control Panel, and then look at the Outlook Address Book Address Book
provider. In it's settings, you will which contacts folders are
enabled for Outlook Address Book Service. In your case, you should see
two. So, for proper results you'll need to remove one.
