Computer Frustrated. - 02 Oct 2005 04:17 GMT
I am trying to transfer names and addresses from excel to outlook and it
keeps telling me "An ODBC error has occurred in the MS excel translator while
opening a file to build a field map...Too many fields defined." Please help
me undo whatever it is that I did. I have about 200 contacts on an excel
spreadsheet that I would like to place in my Outlook:Contacts page. Thank you!

Actually, the error message says "Too Many Fields Defined" (which is
different then "too much data").

Out of curiousity - does the "named range" you're using include the "header
row" that contains the column names for each column?
