Importing contacts from Excel

I am trying to import contact details from Excel in to Outlook (2003).
During the process the wizard tells me I don't have the necessary translator
and to reinsert the original disc. This does not help as the file is not
known. Anybody else hit this problem and what did you do?

What do you mean the file is not known?
That message is telling you that you need to install Outlook's Importers and
Exporters using your original Office installation CD.
