I am trying to import contacts in excel format to outlook, and I can only
move 35 of 124.  It's probably a simple problem, but I'm stumped.  Any ideas?

From a .csv file?  Do you get any error messages?

I'm not sure if it is a csv file.  I have my contact addresses in an excel
worksheet file.  I tried to delete the first 35 contacts and then import the
next 35, but it wouldn't import any of the other contacts.  Any other ideas?
Thanks

What happens when you try?  It completes but the contacts aren't there?  Are
there any error messages?
Are the remaining contacts consistent with the first 35 in format?
Are you using the File --> Import and Export-->Import from another program
or file ....?

I was able to move the contacts by saving the excel file in .csv, and moving
it over.  That seemed to work.
Thanks

Check to make sure that the named range you've set in Excel covers all the rows you want to import.
