I've exported my existing contacts from Outlook to an Excel file then have
populated the Excel file with additional contacts and then import the Excel
file back into Outlook but the contacts that I have entered do not show up.

Did you expand the named range in Excel to include the addtional rows?

You need to change the "named Range" that was orginally created when you
exported the file from Outlook to include the newly added records.
