Re: exporting contacts

Signed on with a Windows Live ID ?
Not Signed On with Windows Live ID ?

When viewing the Contacts in WLM are the first and last names filled in ?
When Exporting the Contacts in WLM are you selecting the First and Last Name fields on the screen that prompts "Select the fields
you wish to export"
- Note the default does not enable the First, Last, Middle, Nickname fields(the user must toggle it on)
If the fields were selected then when viewing the CSV file in Excel are the first and last names fields filled in ?
