Export Contacts from Outlook 2003 to Treo 755p Contacts

[Texas_Dawg]

What is the best way to export my contacts in Microsoft Outlook to my Treo 755p? I need to export from a computer at work which I cannot sync with. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Can you export it from outlook to a file at work,
then take that file home, and import it to outlook on your personal PC and then resync it there?

I exported my Contacts to an Excel file and then loaded that into Palm Desktop last night. The problem I had is that a lot of the fields were misplaced in the VersaMail contact cards (phone numbers in address fields, names in phone number fields, etc.). If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know. Thanks.

It is a real pain to remap those fields. Do you have outlook at home? I'd stick with that if you want to import.
It has been a long time since I tried this stuff, but outlook does something funky with the contact info. For example, it has a "work address" and a "home address" and a "primary address"; but the primary address is not really an address, it references one of the other addresses. (This is all from very old memories from my Palm V). Unless you want to go through each contact manually to check it, I'd try to stick with outlook.

(I did not take that advise -- I migrated to the Palm desktop, which I like much more -- but it took a long time.)

I did use the vcard product http://vcard.4team.biz/?code=608310193bh66vm to export my contacts from outlook and then used my phone software to import them. worked nicely. hope it helps.

when you are on the Contacts page in Outlook (at your workplace), go under File and see if there is an Export button. Click that and see if you can export your Outlook Contacts to an .xml file on your local computer; it may even ask where you want to save it. Save it to your Documents, or better yet, save it to an thumb drive. Then take that file home and put it in your Documents then do the same procedure in your Outlook, except click on Import Contacts; it will bring up an file browser window, just find the .xml file and click that.

You can email it home too.

Is it against policy to sync at work. I use my cable at work and bluetooth at home.
