MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / January 2006Exporting Outlook contacts
Hi all, Is it possible to export the contents of an Outlook 2k3 contacts folder to a CSV or excel file? I've been trying but can only seem to export the headings, not the actual address and name data etc. I have around 100 contacts that I need to export in this fashion, 90 or so of which are personal distribution lists. Is there a way to export them all in a oner to an excel or csv file? Thanks. You can certainly export Contacts just by using the Export Wizard. DL's do not survive exporting--one of the many reasons they are such a poor choice for grouping Contacts.

Russ- Did you ever figure out how to export your contacts to another file? I am hoping to figure out how to export to a word file or pdf file so i can print them out and always have a backup copy. Exporting them to excel doesn't work very well..i lose a lot of the information I entered into the actual contact. Chris > Quick response, much appreciated.

If for some reason you want to create a printout of your data, then File > Import and Export > Export to a file will return the file type to which you can export. Most users who want to create a printout of their Contacts will use a mail merge to Word to do so.
