combining multiple contact files for group use
I am using Office Outlook 2003.
Help!! I want to gather vendor contact lists from 5 coworkers, combine them, clean out dupes, then allow all contributors access to one tidy new master list. Is it smarter to export original files to .csv or excel? I assume I won't have to do any field mapping when importing the corrected file? How do I make the new list available to all? Thank you

combining multiple contact files for group use
If everyone is using Outlook, it's smarter not to change data format. Keep
everything in one folder in a PST file. You can use a duplicate checker if you need to. http://www.slipstick.com/addins/contacts.htm#dupes -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "cz" wrote in message ...

Is the PST file something that already exists or do I create it?

That depends on whether you are using a local data store or Exchange server.
You should always mention basic information like that. If it is the former than you are already using a PST file. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "cz" wrote in message ...
