Introduction to Importing Contacts in Outlook
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. -
Viewing Imported Contacts
Once the import is complete, you can view your newly imported contacts in the designated folder within Outlook. This allows you to easily access and manage your contact information. -
Conclusion
Importing contacts into Outlook from a CSV file is a straightforward process that can significantly enhance your contact management. By understanding the options available for handling duplicates, users can ensure that their contact lists remain organized and up-to-date.
