Importing into User Defined Fields

[Guest]

Hi in Outlook 2003, contacts. I have created a custom form and am trying to
import data from excel into it. During the import I am attempting to map the
various data fields. The normal ones, eg name, address, phone etc are fine,
however, I can't find my new user defined fields which I created for the
custom form. There are four UDF's (default) which so far I have ignored,
because I need about 10-15.

Any ideas? Thanks

Charles

Outlook does not support importing to a custom form, nor importing custom fields. You would need to write your own import code or use a third-party tool. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm
