How to Convert an Excel File Into a SharePoint Business Contact List

On a Microsoft SharePoint website, you can organize address information in a business contact list, which can then be shared with other individuals in your company or organization. Instead of creating a business contact list from scratch, you can import data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. After converting the file to SharePoint, you can specify what other accounts should have access to the business contact list.

Instructions

1

Open the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that you want to convert to a SharePoint business contact list.

2

Go to the "Design" tab in the top toolbar.

3

Click on the "Export" button in the "External Table Data" section and choose the "Export Table to SharePoint List" option.

4

Enter the Web address of the Microsoft SharePoint website that you want to export the Excel data to, or choose a site you have previously used from the drop-down menu.

5

Type a name and description that you want to use to identify the new business contact list.

6

Press "Next" and "Finish" to export the data to a new business contact list in Microsoft SharePoint.
