Click

.
Match the columns of your exported file to the corre-
5.
sponding contact details fields (Fig. 5.4-B, .csv shown).
Click
Continue
.
NOTE:
You can simplify the matching process by re-
moving unnecessary fields from your exported .csv file
by opening the file in a spreadsheet program such
as Microsoft Excel and deleting empty columns. In
the .csv file used for Fig. 5.4-B, all columns but First
Name, Last Name and Email address 1 were deleted.
MyContacts will import contacts from Windows .csv files
exported from any email program. Mac users, be sure to
save your file as a Windows .csv file.
Figure 5.4-A
If you already have a large address book in either Mozilla/Netscape 7 or Outlook Express, you can export the address book as an .ldif
or .csv file and import it directly into MyContacts.
