Import Contacts

[Guest]

Hi,

I have a massive list of contact in a excel AND access file. I need to some
how get either one of these files to go into my contacts in Outlook. I would
like them all to go into a distrubution list but I am having problems
importing. Everytime I import the file I choose how I wnt them mapped and
then it starts to copy over but they NEVER appear in my contacts, it's like
nothing has happened at all.

Can anyone help please!!! I am using Outlook 2002.

Try this instead. Create a few contacts in Outlook and export them to
Excel. Compare the 2 files, yours and the one Outlook created and massage
yours to match Outlook's. Do the same with Access. Then try importing them.
