Outlook offers a convenient Import/Export Assistant that allows users to import contacts from a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file. This feature is particularly useful for those looking to consolidate their contact information from various sources into one accessible location. -
Steps to Import Contacts
To begin the import process, follow these steps: 1. Open Outlook and navigate to the **File** tab. 2. Select **Open & Export**. 3. Click on **Import/Export** to open the Import/Export Wizard. 4. In the wizard, select **Import from another program or file** and then choose **Comma Separated Values**. 5. Locate and select your contacts CSV file. -
Handling Duplicate Contacts
During the import process, Outlook provides several options for managing duplicate contacts. Choose one of the following options based on your needs: - **Replace duplicates with items imported**: This option will replace existing contact information in Outlook with the information from the imported file. Use this if the new file contains more complete or recent information. - **Allow duplicates to be created**: This option will create a duplicate entry for any contact that exists in both Outlook and the imported file. You can later combine information to eliminate duplicates. This is the default setting. - **Do not import duplicate items**: This option will skip any contacts that already exist in Outlook, keeping the original information intact. Choose this if the existing information is more complete or recent. -
Completing the Import Process
After selecting how to handle duplicates, click **Next** to choose the destination folder for your contacts. Click **Next** again and then **Finish** to start the import process. Outlook will begin importing your contacts immediately, and the operation will conclude when the import progress dialog box closes. -
