We have tried to import from MS Excel, MS Outlook and even a .csv file. They
all do the same thing. It takes over 2.5 hours to import 196 records, and
they don't have that much information.
The information used to be in version 2000, but we upgraded to 2003. All
files have been 'repaired and compacted' as well as converted to version 2003.
The problem is on everyone of our 50 some machines.
We are at a loss here. I can't go into details, but 90% of our personnel
are in the filed and need the most current contact information available to
them. We use the database as a central respository and upload to the
individual MS Outlook contacts.
Anyone have ANYTHING they can add that might help?

Does the import problem occur on more then one machine?
If it's only one machine that is having the problem - suggest re-installing
Office. If it's on more then one machine then it sounds very much like you
have a data related issue if the problem occurs across all file formats
mentioned. You may want to do a compact & repair on your database to ensure
there are no errors that have cropped up in the database itself.

Our office just upgraded to Office 2003 from Office 2000. At the same
time
we went from Windows 2000 to Windows XP.
Since the upgrade a routine that worked under the old system is no longer
working. We have a MS Access program that has all employees listed -=
address, phone numbers, etc. This is compiled into a table that is setup
specificly for import by MS Outlook.
In the past, it took all of 2 minutes to import over 200 contacts into
Outlook. Now in 10 minutes, I import only seven contacts.
Can anyone give me some pointers about this? I have tried to export the
info to EXCEL (both .xls and .csv files) and the results are the same. It
is
almost as if Outlook no longer wants to do the import function.
Thanks.
