Default Address Book contacts missing when importing from Excel

I am having a problem, I have an Excel file that is in the established Excel format to import data into Contacts in Outlook 2003. But the entire contacts folder is empty whereas it should have 70 some entries.

I even exported a dummy excel file to make sure the template was correct and when I do import the Excel file, it recognizes the column names because it gives me the options to place them accordingly. BUT when I finally export it, which kicks back no error message and acts sucessful, it shows up with no entries.

Stumped?

Check the named range that you're importing. Does it include all the data?
