Importing excel file with each contact

[Matthew Berger]

Hello,
Need some help with the import/export of contacts from one
computer to another.
I can transfer the contacts but I have a excel file with
each contact which does not transfer over.
Please help and tell me what I need to do!!

I need to know how to do this as well. When I try I get
an error message refering to the odbc driver manager not
found?
Please let me know if you get an answer.

You mean each contact has an Excel file attached to it? In that case, the
only type of file you can use to transfer is a Personal Folders .pst file.

Thank you Sue,
Just copied the file at work and returned back home to
transfer and in the middle of the transfer a message came
up with "The server is not available. Contact your
administrator if this condition persists"
What can I do??

Describe how you were performing the "transfer."

You might want to try opening the .pst file with the File | Open | Outlook
Data File (Personal Folders FIle) command and just copy the items.
