email addresses not importing
 
I am trying to import an excel file I created at my plast job of contacts.
Everything is importing correctly, except for the email addresses. Has
anyone ever seen this problem. I've tried importing an excel file and a CSV
file (windows). I swear the email addresses were there last week.

I finally figured out the problem and I couldn't believe how simple it was.
The columns in my Excel sheet for email addresses had the word "Email" in
them. What I did was find and replace all "Email" with "E-mail" (note, do
not use the quotes). I saved it, exited out, and tried to import the
contacts again and it worked. This seam like a mishap on microsofts part.

How is it Microsoft's problem that you failed to spell the column heading
correctly?

Wow, did you really get offensed by that? It was microsofts problem. The
excel sheet was created by using Outlooks "export to a file". Outlooked
named the columns, I didn't.
