Nettiedec said:Export Contacts to an Excel Spreadsheet to clean up, Imported back into
contacts in Outlook. No email addresses transferred back in. They are
still
in the Excel Spreadsheet.
Nettiedec said:Yes I read the KB articles, F1 and onlline help, also I have the 2003
Outlook
QUE Book;
then I
Followed the procedure in Outlook:
Opened Contacts Folder
File>Export>Excel
Exported the Contacts to Contactsjun06.xls
Because the file has many columns, used the Split Windows feature to match
names with email addresses. Did not move columns around, but did enlarge
columns to read them.
Removed duplicate entries
Removed entries with no e mail addresses attached
Un Split Windows feature
Saved the Excel file.
Went back to OutLook Contacts Folder
File>Import>Excel spreadsheet Contactsjun06.xls
File imported
Checked names and emails, no e mails transferred back into Contact
Folders,
Only transfered: Last Name, First Name, Company, Addresses, phone numbers,
and that is it.
Then I did a detect and repair for Outlook and did the same procedure
again,
and it still did not work. I am using XP Home edition and XP Office Pro
2003.

Russ Valentine said:You obviously did not read the article I posted. Which ones did you read? We
still have no way of knowing.
At what point did you name a range in Excel and map your fields? Both would
have been required to import directly from an Excel file.
