I have about 800 names and email addresses in an Excel
spreadsheet that I need to add to my Outlook address book.
Can anyone give me a hint on how to do this?
 
Save the Excel Spreadsheet as a CSV (Comma Separated Value) file and then in
the Address Box, Click, File, Import, Other Address Box, then click Text CSV
file and browse to it.
 
Mike,
Thanks for your response, but I'm having trouble doing
what you suggest. When I'm in the Outlook address book,
under File there is on Import function. Am I looking in
the wrong place?
Thanks,
Hal
 
Indeed. Import into your Contacts Folder. That's where Contacts are stored,
not in the Address Book view. Also, you can export from an Excel file
directly. It is not necessary to create a CSV file first.
