Importing data to Outlook contacts

[allenj]

Can you import data to new 'user defined' fields in your Outlook contact
list? I created a couple of new fields but the import function will not allow
me to map to them.

Outlook does not support importing to a custom form, nor importing custom fields. You would need to write your own import code or use a third-party tool. See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=23

Thanks for the quick response Sue.
