Mapping Contacts When Importing them from an Excel file

[Indy]

Is there any way to save a custom mapping in Outlook so that each time I
import my Excel contact database to capture updates I won't have to redo the
mapping?

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.

AFAIK, no. Can you update the field names in Excel to match the ones Outlook
uses?

What Outlook does is remember the last settings you used. In a perfect world
where nothing changes and nothing goes wrong - you could just re-run the
import using previous settings.

* CG Importer is an "add-only" import product
** CG DataPorter allows you to "update" pre-existing contact info
*** both products allow you to create unlimited reusable import templates
and run the import on a scheduled basis using any Task Scheduler
