Thank you, I tried this, but here is my main issue. If I have 1 contact that says Mary Smith with incorrect phone.(This contact has a task assigned to it, which I definitely want to keep this way) the duplicate contact has Mary Smith and the correct phone num., but does not have the task...

Ok, I have about 1000 contacts. I have duplicates of each, b/c the first had incorrect phone numbers, so I exported to csv and put the right ones in, I then imported back into outlook, but kept the duplicates. Why did I do this? The first set of "wrong number contacts" each had tasks assigned...

Diane, thanks this worked great, I just separated the text by using space delimited!:)

I had to restore tasks and activities, but each task is assigned to a contact...and now it is not there.Any ideas please?

Just when I thought my database was ready to go.....:mad:I exported my 1000 plus contact list to csv to edit the phone numbers. After I finished all of them, I noticed that the email had some extra garbage at the end. For instance steve@comcast.net would show up as "steve@comcast.net SMTP...

Hi, since I have so many contacts, I want to use access as the main area to store all of my contacts and in a separate access database, keep my contacts/tasks I work with most and synchronize them with outlook. (like 500 contacts) I am trying to synchronize the two, and here's what I did...

Thanks for your help. It might be easier to bite the bullet b/c I am half way thru the list anyway...but I love the board here.

I imported about 500 ACT! tasks into outlook. They have imported as ACT phone calls. Each of them needs to be assigned to a different contact. What is the easiest way to go about this? I am dragging and dropping a task to the to do bar, opening the task, and assigning to a contact(this...
