Comma Separated Values (.csv) which is a sort of spreadsheet or danged near database, which is one way to export your Outlook Contacts you may notice... The first record is a header that has labels to warn the importing program what's coming, like "Name,Phone,Address,Email" ... and the second record might have "Herbert Hoover,555-1212,1234 5th St.,herbert@hoover.com"

Then gmail at the bottom of the Contacts screen has an Import button to go through the steps...

Is that what you're asking?
