Upon using MS Office at work, I was given a large Spreadsheet of people I have 
to call. I was given user ID numbers but no Phone Numbers and only a few 
emails. I looked to see if I could find an easy way to have those user ID's 
somehow be the key for getting phone numbers from my Outlook contacts. The 
tedious copying of an ID number (which will always give one result) into my 
address book 400 times then copying their phone number just to put it back into 
the spreadsheet could be much easier due to the uniforn nature of the contact 
field. I compare it to the way music files are tagged and read. The metadata 
for each song has an artist, title, album, etc but the filename doesn't have to 
be anything important.

 I wouldnt know where to start coding, but using a spreadsheet for contacts is 
a popular practice and more tools for autofilling would be useful.
