How to export contacts from hotmail to any email account (without outlook or paying for a premium service). Follow the procedure step by step, it takes 10-15 minutes.

1 Go to ?contacts? in hotmail. Highlight names and addresses with the mouse. Copy all the names and the email addresses.
2 Put the selection on a Word sheet. Highlight all again, go to the ?table? menu and choose ?Convert text to table? (attention, check the option ?commas?).
3 Go to ?save as? and under the option ?files of type?, choose ?plain text?
4 Open Microsoft Work spreadsheet or Excel
5 And using Work spreadsheet or Excel open the file previously saved as plain text
6 Now you have two columns. Insert a row at the top. In the first column write Name, in the second E-mail, in the third Notes (exactly like here, attention to the capital and plural)
6 Go to ?save as? and under the option ?files of type?, choose ?.csv?
7 Open Gmail, go to contacts and on the top right you will see ?import?. Now you browse and you choose the file saved as .csv.
