Importing a tab-delimited text file for Address Books

(Agenda View | File | Import Data | Tab-delimited text file for Address Books)

Choose which information you would like to import into your Address Book.

Choose an Address Book into which you would like to import information.

Information about each contact appears in the left-hand side of the Mapping section. Choose how to map contact information to your Address Book fields. For example, if the last name of a contact appears on the left, you could map that information to any field in your Address Book. The Mapping fields you choose for the first contact (Record 1 of X) remain as the defaults for subsequent contacts. Leave them as the defaults, or configure mapping on a case-by-case basis. Use the << and >> buttons to move through the Address Book Entries' information. Click Clear All to remove any mapping that you may already have done. Click Map To in order to select the field to which you would like to map the information.

In the File Name section, specify the name of your file. Click Browse to set the file's location.
