Default Outlook driving me mad!

Use Individual fields. does the street address and suite include a comma?
If so, remove it.

I have the street address (including suite number) in one column, separate
from city, state, and zip which are all in their own columns. Are you
saying
I should consolidate all of the address info into one column (address
together with state, zip, etc) or separate it as much as I can into
individual fields?

the
one outlook uses so it doesn't need mapped.

the address fields a

Hi,

I am trying to import my contacts from an Excel spreadsheet into
Outlook.
I
feel like I have tried EVERYTHING! I have saved my data as both an
excel
spreadsheet and in CSV format. I have made sure the columns AND the
range
of
data is identified.

I check and check again to make sure my fields are mapped correctly. I
have
tried eliminating symbols that might interfere (even though I don't see
why
they would).

Every time I do the import, all of the data is imported EXCEPT for the
address.... it gets the name, city, state, phone etc etc but ALWAYS
leaves
out the address!

Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it? If so, I
would
greatly appreciate some help.

Thanks!

JPorter
