manager software. The contacts will be merged into the currently loaded phonebook.

management application (such as Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express or Palm applications).
The export function in these programs is normally located under the file menu. Be sure to
specify the export file as a text file or comma separated file (CSV). An example of exporting
contacts from Microsoft Outlook is as follows:
a. Start Microsoft Outlook on your PC.
b. Select import/export from the file menu.
c. Select export to file and press next.
d. Select a file type of comma separated values (in Windows).
e. Select the folder containing the contacts you want to export.
f. Once you've selected a contact folder, press next.
g. Enter a file name to save your contacts to. This will be the file you select to import into the
phonebook manager program. Be sure to make note of where on your PC you save the file
for later reference.
