Default Import my Contatcs from Palm to Outlook 2007

I exported my addresses from Palm Desktop to a .csv file in Excel. I tried
one suggestion from online to insert a row a label each column from A-T, and
save as in Comma Seperated (Windows). When I go into my Outlook to Import the
..csv, it all loads into my contacts but only the first 3 columns? So all I
get is First Name, Last Name & Company? Am I doing something wrong, I cant
seem to get the addresses or phone numbers in there?

I also tried doing a sample backwards, exporting from outlook to excel and
then importing to Palm, and it all worked great everything was there. Do I
need to go into my Outlook fields and change them? And if so , how and what??

Thank you in Advance.....

Try this - create a couple of contacts in Outlook and then export to a ..csv file. Compare the column headers to your file and massage yours accordingly.
