This functionality requires that the Outlook
"Address Book Control Component" be installed. It is not normally
installed automatically. Read the following note by Microsoft:
The script that runs when the user clicks Import Contacts requires an
Address Book Control component included with Outlook. By default, this
component is not installed during Outlook setup but is configured as
Installed On First Use. When you deploy Outlook, you might want to mark
the Address Book Control component as Run From My Computer, as explained
in Chapter 4 of the Microsoft Office 2003 Editions Resource Kit
(Microsoft Press, 2003) under “Customizing Office Features and
Shortcuts,” so that it will already be installed locally when users want
to import Outlook data into a SharePoint contacts list.
For importing to work properly, it is also important that your site URL
has been added to your trusted sites in IE. Doublecheck that this is the
case.
