I have an Excel document with fields that do not match the default contact
fields. I have created a custome form and published it to a public folder and
my contacts. The public folder allows me to select "only forms listed above."
My Contacts folder does not permit me to do this. I need to configure this
option so I can import the items from the spread sheet. As far as I know
there is no way to import this data directly to the public folder. What can I
do to enable this option so I can import my contacts from the spreadsheet
using the new form? O am using Outlook 2003.
 
Outlook doesn't support importing to a custom form or custom fields, or even directly to a public folder. You'd have to write custom code or use a third-party application. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm.
