Ok-I have the new personal folder ~ Thank You! I can manually insert contact
info. I did try to import ~ It went all the way thru the first header and
started (I dont know how far it got) thru the second header when I recieved
the problem message and outlook restarted. I did double check the Excel
spreadsheet and the only thing I can see different in those two columns is:
the first column every cell has information in it, the second column does
have blank spaces near the end of the column. Would that have anything to do
with the import not finishing and if so how do I make it work without adding
a character in each blank cell just to delete it in Outlook? (sorry about all
the ?'s - outlook is new to me!) Thanks

Not so easy... Go to the Control Panel's Mail applet, click Email accounts,
select View/Change existing email accounts Click Next

Click New Outlook Data File, create the file then set it in the Deliver new
email to the following location dropdown

Start Outlook and use the new folders. You might have to close the old ones
but other than that you should be fine

Nothing that cant be sent to another account or is important.
Can I just right click on "Personal Folders" and then right click and
delete?

Don't import. Open the old PST as well and drag/drop everythin in it to the
new PST. Close the old one when finished.

I dont think that any of the contact information was imported into the old
PST. I would like not to manually enter all the contact information. I have 3
different "mailing" lists that need entered. The largest is over 150 names,
addresses, ph# etc. I tried an import after manual enter worked. The first
header "area" which is the state column, worked. The second header,
community, did not. the only difference i could see in the columns was the
blank cells on the community header. could that have anything to do with the
import failure? can I import without filling in the cells before import and
then going into each contact after import and deleting that unnecessary info?
With that many contacts, I want the easy way!!!
