Hi,
I am trying to import my contacts from an Excel spreadsheet into Outlook. I feel like I have tried EVERYTHING! I have saved my data as both an excel spreadsheet and in CSV format. I have made sure the columns AND the range of data is identified. I check and check again to make sure my fields are mapped correctly. I have tried eliminating symbols that might interfere (even though I don't see why they would). Every time I do the import, all of the data is imported EXCEPT for the address.... it gets the name, city, state, phone etc etc but ALWAYS leaves out the address! Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it? If so, I would greatly appreciate some help. Thanks! JPorter |

I have the street address (including suite number) in one column, separate
from city, state, and zip which are all in their own columns. Are you saying I should consolidate all of the address info into one column (address together with state, zip, etc) or separate it as much as I can into individual fields?

Use Individual fields. does the street address and suite include a comma?
If so, remove it. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "JPorter" wrote in message ...
