I have created an Excel that has all the Contact information in our Great
Plains software. I want to import this information into Outlook 2003 and can
seem to do so as long as the folder is mine. I want this to go to a Public
folder for others to use, but when I get to the destination portion of the
import process the public folders is not an option. What can I do??
Thanks

Import into a folder in your mailbox or a .pst file, then move the items to the public folder.
