Importing Custom Fields & Creating Forms
HI,
I have a database in Excel of contacts with custom fields from which I would like to import into Outlook as Contact Cards. I'm not overly technical, and would appreciate a fairly easy method to completing this task. I understand that when creating custom forms, that any custom fields are not importable/exportable without some VBA Scripting.. Is this correct? Thanks in advance Simon

Importing Custom Fields & Creating Forms
Correct. Outlook does not support importing to a custom form, nor importing custom fields. You would need to write your own import code or use a third-party tool. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm
