Answer would depend on the format in which they stored, which you neglected
to mention. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Patricio" wrote in message ... I have a list of contacts in hard copy only (40 pages worth) and I want to know what is the most efficient way of inputing this information into Outlook? Thanks

How can I import contacts into Outlook?
Sorry. I didn't understand what you meant by "hard copy." I assume you mean
you have these only on paper? Most such records are actually printouts of records that exist electronically somewhere (since no one uses typewriters anymore). Do you have access to the original data source? If not, you'll need to use one of the methods Sue posted to convert the data to electronic format. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ...

How can I import contacts into Outlook?
If the following are all true:
1) the information is in a table-like format (columns and rows) 2) you have access to a scanner 3) the scanner is integrated with OCR software you could potentially scan the pages and create a Word document that could then be massaged into a comma-delimited file for import into Outlook. Otherwise, you might want to hire a temp to type the data into an Excel spreadsheet that you can then import into Outlook at your leisure. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Patricio" wrote in message ...
