Are you one of those Microsoft Outlook users who have encountered difficulties with Outlook data export? The problem with doing export from Outlook using Import and Export Wizard is that sometimes not all of the fields can actually be exported. You are unable to e.g. export email messages from Outlook with the date field included. Another limitation of the Wizard turns out when you try to export custom fields from Outlook forms - they are in fact invisible for Import and Export Wizard. Consequently you won't be able to export e.g. Contacts with custom fields using built-in export feature (might be useful for e.g. exporting Outlook Contacts to Gmail).

There's one simple, though a bit time-consuming and not very professional, trick to export Outlook folder with custom fields to Excel. Open the folder you want to export (e.g. Contacts) and switch to Table view (e.g. Phone List). Make sure that you have your custom fields listed (use Show Fields dialog to pick the fields you want to display). Now select all the items you would like to export, then copy and paste them directly into an Excel worksheet. That's it. However, if you need more (or any) control over exporting and you want to do this in a quicker and easier way - continue reading this article.



Another solution is to automate the process with the use of VBA. If you know how to create macros you will deal with the problem with a few keystrokes. If you don't - keep reading this article.
