Importing Outlook contacts to address book?

I've searced the forum and can't find an answer to this. With my old crappy Nokia, I could import all my outlook contacts to the phone, and from the phone to outlook. Is there a way to do this on my BB? I'm getting UBER tired of re-typing them all in... done 30, and have another 70 or more to go!

You can sync the Outlook contacts with Blackberry Desktop Manager, install the software (the cd in the box) open Blackberry Desktop Manager and connect the device to the pc, go to Synchronize and choose Outlook

Re: Importing Outlook contacts to address book?

I don't have the install cd though. The BB was a gift from a friend... her old pearl when she upgraded to the curve. She doens't have it either. All the stuff I have I've downloaded from the site, so when I go into the desktop manager, Outlook isn't a sync option. Is there someplace to download the various options from the BB site?

Thanks, but I have that already... and still can't figure it out! I swear... I love this thing, but you need an engineering degree to understand it!
