Contacts - Outlook Required?
 
I have a few hundred contacts in URp; they were originally imported from Outlook 2003 back around two versions ago when I used Outlook.

However now I no longer use Outlook; I have Office installed but not Outlook. I can still view and edit my contacts in UR it appears but I am wondering if the fact that Outlook is not installed on this computer will cause any problems with these contacts.
  • Any known issues with Outlook contacts if Outlook is removed?
  • Can the invalid link to Outlook from the contacts be removed?
  • Can I add contacts manually?
  • Can contacts be imported into URp from other sources? Maybe CSV or XML files?

Thanks!

Jim

No. Of course opening the Outlook URL won't work.

Thank you for the quick reply.

BTW, just for the heck of it I already tried clicking the link at the top of each contact that reads, "Click here to open contact". It opens a blank page in Microsoft Word. My guess is that URp checks for an MS Office installation but if it doesn’t find Outlook it opens the next application it sees in the suite. (BTW, I do have Office 2007 installed on this machine but it's the "Home/Student" version or something like that with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote).

Thanks again!

Jim
