Blackberry & Windows Mail

[Jay]

Has anyone had an opportunity to sync their windows contacts to their
Blackberry Curve. I have attempted with the "export" button with no luck. I
have the Blackberry desktop manager which dosent offer much help or maybe Im
just missing the logic. Can someone help?

I know very little about the Blackberry phones, but have heard that it
will only sync with Microsoft Outlook. However, you should be able to
export and import contacts using the universal CSV file format.

Thank you for your response. That is what Im finding. I probably could export
using CVS however that doesnt do me and my Blackberry much good. It looks
like I may need to upgrade my mail program to Outlook even though I am
completely satisfied with what I already have. Im not too happy about maybe
having to manually type in all of my contacts and emails especially on such a
small keyboard. Such is life. If anyone has another idea I would sure
appreciate a note back.
Thanks again

If you get Outlook and install it on your computer, you should be able
to import a CSV file into it (your WM contacts). Then the Blackberry
can be synced with Outlook, and hopefully it will import those contacts
from Outlook. As for the account information, I can't think of any way
to transfer that information, except by retyping it.
You might ask in a Blackberry users forum.
