Importing Contacts?

Please excuse my ignorance-I am very new to the Blackberry world!   Is it possible to import e-mail contacts from a Hotmail account and merge with the phone numbers currently stored in my phone?  Thanks!

Re: Importing Contacts?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!

 

It is indeed possible...here are the instructions for importing from a CSV.

As for how to get them out of Hotmail and into the CSV, that's a question for Hotmail.

Re: Importing Contacts?

I do have the CSV file save, but the inistructions on the link are for version 4.0 and earlier and I have version 4.7?  I can't find anything that resembles the correct places listed in the link.  Thanks again for your help!
