This menu allows importing to and exporting from your personal address book. It supports both CSV (Comma Separated Variable), Outlook, and vCard formats, as well as some other popular formats.
To import an address book, you need to have the address book data to import on your local machine (on which the web browser is running). To do this, you will need to first export the address book information from your current email client.
If you use Outlook Express:
1) Click on File > Export > Address Book
2) Select "Text File" (Comma Separated Values) in the "Address Book Export Tool". Click on "Export".
3) In the "Save exported files as" field, type in a name for your address book. Click "Next".
4) Put a checkmark in the box to the left of each of the fields that you wish to export. Click "Finish".
5) You should receive a message that states 'Address book export process has completed'. Click 'OK'.
6) Click 'Close' on the 'Address Book Export Tool' and close Outlook Express.
If the exported address book file is not located on your desktop, and you're using a Windows operating system, click on Start > Find or Search > Files or Folders and search your main hard drive for the file name that you used in step 3. Make a note of the file's location.To import an address book, open the address book you want to import the information into. Click on the "Import/Export" Icon. Select the type of address information data file you want to import from the selection list. Click on the "browse" button to look for the address data file on your computer. Select the file, and click on the "Import" button. The information in the file will be imported into your address book.
Some complex entries, or entries with fields that do not match your address book fields, may not import correctly. You should verify the imported data after an import.
