How do I create a csv file from Contacts in MacBook Pro (2015)? I've tried dragging and dropping all contacts to Numbers spreadsheet, but it doesn't work. Using Monterey MacOS version 12.7.2. Numbers version 13.1. Any ideas?

Judging from comments from other posts on this topic the drag apparently fails if too many contacts are selected for the drag and drop. You might try selecting a smaller number of them and seeing if that works.
If that works then you can drag and drop in stages.
If you are still having trouble you might consider a third-party solution. There have been positive comments here about Export for Contacts, available on the Mac App Store.

Dragging and dropping to Numbers has always worked for me (with version before, after and including Monterey). I just open Contacts, open a blank Numbers spreadsheet, select all (or some) contacts and drag them. What is happening when you try drag and drop?
What FoxFifth suggested still works. Then of course you will need to Export the Numbers sheet to CSV.
