Hi,

I have two columns in excel, name and email address. I
have been trying for hours to get this information to
import into Outlook, but when I do it doesn't associate
the names with the email addresses. It just lists the
names and emails separately in my "contacts." Can anyone
help? =)
 
What version are you using? In Outlook 2002 I can set what to import.
After you have selected the destination folder (Contacts), you have a
dialogue window and
you can select "Map Custom Fields". There you would see Value under From
and assuming you have a
header for Name and a header for Email you would see those 2 in that box, I
noticed sometimes I had to drag
the email from the left pane over to the right pane to E-mail 1.. Then both
the name and email address imported together
 
Thanks so much for your suggestions. You are right, I
just had to DEFINE them differently in Excel. However,
now they're in the contacts folder but I can't seem to
pull them up when trying to send this group email. Any
more suggestions?
