Default Error while importing contacts from Excel to Outlook (MAPI 0X8

Thank you Karl,

I am going thru my list in sections and skipping the one's that have errors
and will input these manually later. I appreciate the explanation of the
error as that helped me figure out how to proceed.

Assuming that this error occurs "all the time" and not just a one-time blip,
then the error would logically appear to be in contact #1382 given that the
first 1381 were imported. Take a look at that to see if there is anything
visible or create a copy of your worksheet, delete that particular contact
and see how far you get. It is possible that more then one contact record in
your Excel worksheet may have the same issue (whatever that issue may be) so
repeat the above process as often as necessary if the problem is not visibly
evident.

Hello,

I've been trying to import my excel database of contacts and get the above
error. I am using an Excel sheet that was exported from Outlook (same
version - 2003) on another computer I was using.

I am able to import the first 1381 contacts from my database, but then get
the following: An error while importing or exporting and the
import/export
was terminated. MAPI error 0X80070057 was reported. Please try to
import/export again later.

My total database includes 1782 contacts. I did go into the database and
update email addresses that were missing, but I don't think this is the
cause
because those contacts were successfully imported.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as this is really starting to
frustrate me.

Thanks,

Amy
