Don't do what I did!
I Exported my 300+ Contacts from People to the Storage Card. That worked fine.
(Later, I learned, when I did that, I lost my Group assignment for each contact.) That is not the bad!
Here's the bad!

I have my Phone Contacts Backed-up to the Verizon BackUp Assistant using a daily sync schedule.
I also have my Phone Contacts Exported to my SD Card which will be used as needed (maybe in case of a Hard Reset). I manually re-do that Export as needed.
I also have the Phone Contacts backed-up to the Computer's Outlook Contacts using HTC Sync "Repair" selection of removing all Contacts from Outlook and exporting phone contacts to Outlook. I do not go from Compu...
