exporting from outlook problem with csv file
Hello,
I am trying to export the contacts from outlook to a web based address book. It is outlook 2003. I followed the instructions in outlook to first make a csv file. Then it would say "exporting contacts" with the graphic. Then there were no addresses on the excel document. Why is it empty? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

exporting from outlook problem with csv file
Did you click the Map Custom Fields button to tell Outlook which fields to export?

exporting from outlook problem with csv file
Hi Sue,
Thanks for the reply. I notice that in outlook, on the import/export wizard, there is no choice of fields to export. I followed all the instructions and got an excel document with no contacts in it. I will just type them in to the other address book. I notice, however, that there is such an option when exporting from outlook express.

exporting from outlook problem with csv file
After you choose the folder to export from and the export file location, you should see a screen in the wizard with a Map Custom Fields button on it.
Did you try opening the exported file with Notepad?

You should see the Map Custom Fields button on one of the dialogs in the Import and Export Wizard.

Hi Sue I fianally got it to work. I think that button was either grayed out and came back or I just didn't see it. Sorry. Thanks for your help.
