Default Import contacts from outlook

You need to go into Outlook and export them, excel is an option there.

Default Import contacts from outlook

Thank You dlw: I exported contacts from outlook to excel and it worked fine
except in the address field, there are separation marks after the street
address, after the state, and after the zip code. When I did field mapping, I
used address only. Not seperate fields for street, state, and zip. I would
prefer that the complete address be in the same field, but why are those
marks there, and is it possible to ge rid of them? Thank you much

Default Import contacts from outlook

Hi,

The Import and Export Wizard in Outlook makes it easy to export contact
information from Outlook into an Excel worksheet (worksheet: The primary
document that you use in Excel to store and work with data. Also called a
spreadsheet. A worksheet consists of cells that are organized into columns
and rows; a worksheet is always stored in a workbook.).

Note Before you use the wizard, it helps to understand the difference
between the Outlook Address Book (Address Book: The collection of address
books that you can use to store names, e-mail addresses, fax numbers, and
distribution lists. The Address Book may contain a Global Address List, an
Outlook Address Book, and a Personal Address Book.) and Outlook Contacts.
Both are part of Outlook. However, the Address Book is a compilation of the
different address lists you might have stored in Outlook, such as a Personal
Address Book (.pab), Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): A protocol
that provides access to Internet Directories.) Internet directories, the
Global Address List (GAL) (Global Address List: The address book that
contains all user, group, and distribution list e-mail addresses in your
organization.

The administrator creates and maintains this address book. It may also
contain public folder e-mail addresses.), or other third-party address books.
Contacts is just one of the address lists that make up the Address Book. Only
contacts can be exported directly from Outlook to Excel.


1. In Outlook, on the File menu, click Import and Export.
2. Click Export to a file, and then click Next.
3. Click Microsoft Excel, and then click Next.
4. In the folder list, click the Contacts folder, and then click Next.
5. Browse to the folder where you want to save the contacts as an Excel file
(.xls).
6. Type a name for the exported file, and then click OK.
7. Click Next.
8. To add or remove fields to determine the way the contact information is
saved in the new Excel worksheet, click Map Custom Fields.
9. Click Finish.

Thank You Challa: That was very helpful. However, after exporting contacts
to the excel worksheet, why is it that in the address field, there are marks
separating the street from the city, the city from the state, and the state
from the zip code? It's almost like a "comma separated file. in field mapping
I had the option to export the street, city, state, and zip in separate
fields. I prefer them to be in the same field but can those marks be removed
somehow? Thanks again

Default Import contacts from outlook

Hi,

Sorry. I am not getting any notification in hotmail account, even after
clicking the "Notify me of replies" check box. That was the reason, why I
could not respond to you. I will check and let you know why it happens so.

Challa when I export my contacts from Outlook to Excel like you suggested I
get an apostrophe in every field. How can I get rid of the apostrophes with
out deleting them from every field?

Default Import contacts from outlook

The apostrophe, which you see only in the formula bar, not in the cells, is
Excel's method of denoting a Text field.

Why do you need it removed?

Does it interfere with some operation?
