MS-Outlook Contacts

[Michael Hamilton]

I have a client considering Purchase of Windows 2003 SBE.
They currently use ACT 6.0 for a contact database. I
would like to change them over to MS-Outlook , but would
like to know if there is a limit to the number of contact
that Outlook will accept.
Thanks,
Mike

None that I know of. I have done an import of ACT contacts in excess of
5000 with no problems.

I would recommend exporting them from ACT, importing into Access to clean
up the code fields (like +1 that always gets included with ACT), then import
the Access into Outlook.
