Step-4.

Note, you can open this exported .CSV file in Excel and manipulate it you like, such as adding addresses, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and other information that will help round out your address book.

Step-5.

While this is an optional step, it’s nice to be able to go through and make your contacts neat and consistent.

When you’re ready, it’s time to import your shiny new contacts file into Outlook. Click on “File” and then “Import/Export.”

We select “do not import duplicate items,” and click “Next.”
