Back Up of Contacts in MS Office 2016 Outlook

Can anyone tell me how I can make a back up of my contacts in MS Office 2016 Outlook. I have had to reinstall my Office a few times this month and although I can reload my messages using archive.pst and backup.pst files it doesn't seem to reinstate my contacts from before having to reinstall Office ...

Re: Sky news this morning.

After reading many of the previous posts, I wonder if the majority of the Scots realise the amount of animosity to the Scots and Scotland, in general, that is being generated by the SNP and its leaders in both the Scottish and UK parliaments and whether they, the Scots in general, are bothered about...

Too many Jims. Notwithstanding that they both have their points regarding Scottish independence. However there will be a lot of flak (blether) to come.

Re: Arguments between various EU countries

Agreed, Individual citizens Bank accounts had money taken out of them.Trev. Explained by jeba. Citizens accounts in banks not subject to bankruptcy were unaffected. We were with Hellenic and didn't lose a penny. Correct me if I'm wrong, but only people with more than €100k in BoC were affected? And...

Re: British Pound slowly strengthening

Because you will get less pounds for it.
Surely if you sell a house here in Cyprus for euros with a falling pound you would get more pounds? Or was that your point?

Re: Sky news this morning - the bit that got political.

For me the biggest failures in all this occurred when Cameron went to the EU trying to renegotiate some of the terms of membership and came back with, basically, nothing but still called it a success. From the EU point of view, this was a good opportunity to review some of the practices within the E...

Re: Car Imports

Not sure the 'duty free' option is available now. I think the duty payable is calculated on CO2 emissions and as long as you are prepared to pay the duty, which, if the CO2 emission level is low, can be zero then I think you can import as many as you want. Could be wrong on the latter. At least this...

Re: British Pound slowly strengthening

Long way to go yet, but we will get there. Where 'there' is I am not sure but, as far as what has happened so far regarding exchange rates it is all as I expected and had already planned for pre-referendum.

Re: Independence Day

I do wish that TM would put the leader of the SNP party in his place when for the second week running he made tried to make the same point at PMQs saying that TM had failed to carry out her pledge to 'seek' the approval of the devolved assemblies in the run up to the Brexit negotiations. Her pledge ...

Re: NHS in Great Britain

I agree with Jim. The present situation, in my opinion is due to the lack of funding and absence of any sensible re-organisation by recent governments of all colours. Unfortunately this seems to beyond the capabiities of all governments. There are consultation groups coming out the woodwork but all ...

Re: Quataris to invest further £5b in UK

I thought this thread was about Qataris investing in UK. There are enough threads about UK leaving the EU without creating another one and regurgitating the various arguments pro and con all over again.

So after a week it will be back to normal. Such a clampdown should be a 24/7/365 event.

Re: Night-time loo trips 'linked to salt in diet'

If you eat salty food or use more salt in your diet you tend to drink more water than usual. If you drink more water than usual you tend to go to the toilet more often.
Next they will be saying that too much salt in your diet raises blood pressure :roll: .

Re: BFBS Radio 2 Problems

Living near Paphos Airport we always got a reasonable signal from both BFBS stations during the winter months. However during the summer months we always got interference from a Turkish station. Even Rock FM etc. had the same problem.
