importing excel list into contacts

[Guest]

I am trying to import a contact information from an Excel spreadsheet. I have
set up the field names for the columns in excel. e.g. Company, First Name,
email address,etc. I set up the mapping in the outlook 2003 import wizard.
When I import it makes a new contact for Company,First Name,.... I cannot get
the information to merge into one contact complete with the name,company,
email address etc. How do I do this am I just missing something?

Please help.

have you started by naming your range in Excel? That's a key step.

I have figured it out. I was not highlight all of the fields in excel. I did
that and mapped my already named comments and we are good to go. Thank you
for your reply.
