Please, there must be a way! I've been reading and trying
everything! Everytime I come to some impassible stumbling block. I
know a little, but am far from techy. If someone out there has/had
Day-Timer Organizer v. 3.95 and successfully transfered the contact
data into their Outlook 2003 Contacts or even better their BCM
Contacts, please tell me how! Please?!

Please bear with me. To be frank I'm not sure at this point. It will
export an ASCII file, but I've tried every method I've read about to
import that file into Outlook 2003 and each time I get errors or the
options I need are "grayed out". Here are my options for exporting
according to "Help" in Day-Timer:

Creating an Export File

To copy entries from the current database (the one you are in right
now) to an export file, select Export Entries
from the File menu. Click on desired Export File Type:

¨ Select Day-Timer/Win to format export data for another Day-Timer
Organizer database (e.g. from a
multi-user, network database to a single user database on a portable
computer).

¨ Select ASCII to format export data for a program such as a
spreadsheet or database which can import
delimited ASCII data (for ASCII field formats, see Appendix B).

¨ Select IntelliLink if you have IntelliLink™ translator software for
exchanging data between Day-Timer
Organizer and palmtop organizers (HP 95LX/100LX, Sharp Wizard, Casio
BOSS, Psion) or other programs
(ACT!, Calendar Creator Plus, Commence, Current, dBase, Ecco, Excel,
Lotus 123, Lotus Organizer,
Packrat, Paradox, PC Tools, Schedule+, Sidekick, Microsoft Word,
WordPerfect, or Word-Perfect
Office). For purchase or support information, contact IntelliLink
Corp, One Tara Blvd, Suite 210, Nashua,
NH 03062 (603) 888-0666.

¨ Select Archive to export (in Day-Timer Organizer for Windows format)
and/or remove information that is
no longer needed on a day-to-day basis (you can export and delete
entries, export entries without deleting
them, or delete entries without exporting them).

¨ Select ASCII to format export data for a program such as a
spreadsheet or database which can import
delimited ASCII data (for ASCII field formats, see Appendix B).


This is the format you need.

What errors do you get when you try importing it into Outlook?

Alternate method:
Export from Outlook to Excel format, just so you can see the fields needed.
Open the ASCII file in Excel and match the headers with the ones outlook
uses - this will make import go easier.

You can create a named range for the data in Excel and save it in Excel
format then import or save it in CSV format to import.
