malcolmswaine Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Off the top of my head... Export the your Outlook contact data to a CSV file. Open the CSV file in Excel. Use your spreadsheet skills to do whatever it is you want to do with the data. Save the data back to the file. Import the file back into Outlook.

Guest Reimar Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 The Outlook Data file has the extension .pst so you need to look for Inbox.pst and so on. Download FileMonkey from HERE You can then use the Export feature of Outlook to export the PST file as a plain text file. FileMonkey can then extract email addresses from the plain text file. Than use FileMonkey for to extract the e-mail addresses out of that text file. Depend on the OS you use, there different location of that PST files. Cheers.

sweetchariot Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Bugger..........I had a progam before that would do exactly that, you just set it up and tell it which folder to search. It collects all valid email addresses, the downside is that it will collect cc's and any email addys in the body of the message. I've completely forgotten the name of it, I will search around and try and find it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Traveller Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 (edited) When I still used outlook, I used this program which might fit the bill. There's a free trail version as well.
