I am trying to import my contacts from my palm desktop to outlook 2003.

When I had my palm desktop open and the contacts open on the screen I went
file export vcard and saved the file in my documents.

When I open outlook and click on the contacts window and try to import the
vcard from my documents nothing happnes my contacts in outlook nothing is
there?

How do I get my contacts imported from my palm desktop and my yahoo contacts.

thanks

is this a single vcard file? outlook doesn't support importing these files.

single files.

as long as it's one vcard per contact, try opening the vcard and click save
and close - if it works, drag and drop the others into outlook's contact's
folder.
