I need to import my some of my contacts from my hotmail account into
Outlook

Without Hotmail Premium and Outlook Live, I don't know any way to do that.

Follow the directions below:

1. Synch Hotmail to Outlook Express
- From the menu bar, click Tools | Accounts
- Click Add button
- Click Mail...
- Follow the rest of the wizard
2. Export the Hotmail contacts, now MS Outlook Express contacts, to a CSV
file.
- From the menu bar, select File | Export | Address Book
- Select 'Text File (Comma Separated Value)'
- Follow the rest of the wizard
3. Import the CSV file to MS Outlook.
- From the menu bar, select File | Import and Export...
- Select 'Import Internet Mail and Addresses'

I was using Windows XP, Office 2003 Pro, and the free version of Hotmail.

Regards.

It will only work with a paid Hotmail or MSN Premium account.

Outlook MVP since 1999 - not all MVPs are listed on that private mvp group
page. All MVP listings are on the public MVP Awardees page - this is the
one for Outlook:

| Thanks Milly. However, I am concerned because you are not listed on
| Microsoft's MVP list at www.mvps.org. Are you new to the group?
