I would like to know whether there is any software or any way by which I can import Contacts data from MS Excel worksheet and transfer it to my phone. Actually I have around 4000 customers to whom i have to send SMS regularly. Can any body help.:frown:

You could try importing them into Outlook and then sycning to your PC. I think Outlook support csv imports.

Otherwise you need to loo at getting them converted the the vcf format. Unfortunatey I haven't done this before so can't really advise.

You don't mention what is the format of your XLS table with contacts - but you can always re-arrange it into the Contacts Manager+ table format, then export data from XLS to CSV, and import it into your phone using Contacts Manager+ for Series 60.
