MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / January 2007word
How can I easily transfer word and excel files ito the contacts in oultook (I don't want to maually input them all!). Just launch Outlook's import Wizard to see what file types it can import. There are ample Help files and KB articles to tell you the steps to use.

Do you want to transfer the files themselves or the contents of those files? SignatureBrian Tillman Ditto. I was told that I can store / access my word docs and excel xls in Outlook much and use Outlook to manage web, word and excell activity - all from within outlook...but how?

That seems highly inefficient to me. Outlook's data store format isn't well-suited, in my opinion, to hold WIndows file system objects. SignatureBrian Tillman I agree. This started with Outlooks "web" tool bar which opens web pages in Outlooks reading pane. An associate of the boss saves everything from MS office to Outlook folders but Word, Excel, etc opens in a new window. He wants everthing to open in the reading pane as does web pages. I heard this is possible but have yet to find out how. Thanks. SignatureEd Information Technology Consultants > > Ditto.

SignatureBrian Tillman Thanks Brian. Can you confirm that if we purchase Outlook 2007 we can then open office files in the readin pane? SignatureEd Information Technology Consultants > > I agree.

I cannot, since I haven't tried OL 2007 yet, but others here have and I'm sure one of them will respond. SignatureBrian Tillman Thanks again...
