I am trying to import a Excel 2007 file into Outlook 2007, I first changed
the file extesion to excel- 2003 format. When I try to import the excel file
into outlook I get a Map call Cody_Mail with address only fields.
The program will not let me modify or delete this Map and will note let me
build a new Map with the correct custom fields.

Did you simply "change" the extension or actually re-save it as an .xls
file? First option will do nothing but cause potential problems. As for
your "Cody_Mail" map - likely to be the only "Named Range" found assuming
that the file was re-saved versus re-named.

Simplest solution - save the worksheet you want to import as a CSV file and
import that instead.
