Hi Paul, and a warm welcome to the BrailleNote family.
What you need to do is import your Windows Address Book into Microsoft
Outlook's contacts, and then synchronise your contacts with the BrailleNote
using KeySync.
The following article on doing the import is taken from the Microsoft
Knowledge Base and can be found at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=196215
It applies to Outlook 2000 but I doubt that the process is different in
2002.
SUMMARY
Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express are different programs with
different capabilities, although both can send to and receive e-mail from
the
Internet. There are two ways to share contact information between these two
programs. If, during Outlook Active Setup, you choose to upgrade a program
that uses the Windows Address Book, Setup will do a silent conversion of
the address entries to the Contact format used by Outlook.
If you choose not to convert during Setup, you may do so later using the
Import and Export Wizard. Outlook provides a tool to assist you in
converting Windows
Address Book (WAB) information.
The Windows Address Book is used by the following products:
• Microsoft Internet Mail and News
• Microsoft Outlook Express
• Microsoft Outlook 98 Internet Mail Only
MORE INFORMATION
You can choose to store address information in two ways. You can store the
information in your Windows Address Book (WAB) and export to Outlook. Or,
you
can select the option in Outlook Express to share contact information among
Microsoft Outlook Internet Mail Only (IMO) installation.
Using the Outlook Import Export and Wizard
In Outlook, you can use the Import and Export Wizard as the interface for
Address Book conversion. To convert a WAB file, follow these steps:
1. Start Outlook if it is not currently running.
2. On the File menu, click Import and Export.
3. Select Import Internet Mail and Addresses, and then click Next.
4. Select Outlook Express 4.x, 5 from the list, and then click Next.
5. Select the product for which you wish to convert items from the list,
and then click Next.
6. Select any combination of the Mail or Addresses from the items listed.
NOTE: With the exception of rules conversion from Outlook Express, the
steps to convert addresses is the same.
7. Click Next.
8. Select a destination for the imported address data. The
destinationdepends on the type of Outlook installation you selected
initially.
1. The Internet Mail Only installation of Outlook 98 allows only the
Contacts folder as the destination.
2. The Corporate or Workgroup option allows the options of Personal Address
Book or Outlook Contacts.
9. Select the appropriate duplicate items option. Click Finish to complete
the import.
