It's easy to make a mistake importing a pst file into contacts in Outlook,
overwriting new information with old etc. An undo button would make it possible to back out and try again. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Obviously, you're writing from a position of frustration, but what you're asking would require Outlook to maintain transaction records for the import of thousands, possibly millions of individual items. I don't need to talk to anyone at Microsoft to know that's never going to happen.
The logical approach here is to make a backup of the .pst file before you perform any bulk import. Also, importing is usually the worst way to move contacts. A better approach would be to open the other .pst file and drag the contacts into the main .pst file. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "MEHWroclaw" wrote in message ...
