    Exclamation Import Excel Data to Outlook

    I need to import a list of email addresses into an Outlook contact file. I have saved an excel file that contains the 'named' list of columns. When i import to Outlook, the Excel translator cannot find the "named" list.
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    You would need to save your Excel file as a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file.

    A blank file is attached with all the possible headings you need in a contact record.
