Error Exporting the Address Book

[M4A1]

I have a list of contacts in my Address Book program. (Start > Programs > Accessories > Address Book) -- however when I want to import it as a CSV file, it won't let me.

The specific error I get is:

Error Exporting the Address Book

On Microsoft's website it says that I should "RESOLUTION
Export the Address Book again to a location with more free disk space. " -- however, I have over >> 50 GB << free on my laptop hard drive. What could be the deal? I want to export it as CSV so I can import it into Thunderbird.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

outlook or outlook express may be able to export it

See, I can create a .txt file of my address book... I imported it as a .txt file and it goes through sucessfully... however, when I click on the address book within T-bird, it only shows the NAME value, and no e-mails list.

If you hover over the entries, it shows you the email address of the person stored in the NICKNAME value.

What do I do?
