Depends on what your exporting them to
If the destination pc only accepts csv, then use that
On vista the contacts are just files, so if they're going to another vista pc (or you just want to back them up), you can simply copy them from the contacts folder

sounds like you are getting ready for a fresh install.
here's what i do, change the default 'Store Folder' location to your documents or any area thats not hidden, a copy and paste to another area as needed insures you have a backup.
the store folder location is at 'Options - Advanced - Maintenance'.
when importing from that folder delete the default folders of Windows Mail before importing.
