How do I import contacts from Excel or Act?

Outlook388
I need to get an Act 2005 contact list into Outlook 2002. I can export Act to

Excel, but get error messages when trying to import in Outlook, either can

not find file, or values are not named.

Export a few created contacts from Outlook to Excel. Compare the Outlook

file to the Act file and massage the Act file accordingly. Note: Outlook

does not import custom fields.
