Default "No named ranges" error importing from xls file...

To avoid the "Named Range" requirement for the Excel file using the Outlook
import wizard, just save the worksheet with the contact info as a CSV file
and import the CSV file in Outlook instead.

Hi,
I have received and Excel file with Contact information; all the headings,
Title, First Name, etc. are correctly placed at the top of each column,
but
when I try to import the xls file I receive a message stating "The MS
Excel
file [path\filename] has no named ranges. Use Excel to name the range of
data you want to import."
I don't understand what it means by "named ranges"... I have looked in XL
but have not found anything that helps. Can someone please tell me how to
do
this?

Cheers,
Alphonse
