Bria 2.1 for Windows

Setting up Contacts

Adding a Contact

Click , or right-click a group and choose Add Contact to Group. The Contact Profile dialog box appears.

Importing Contacts

You can populate the Bria contact list by importing from an external file. The new contacts will be added to the

existing contacts.

You can import a contact list from:

• A comma-separated file. Use this method to import from a Microsoft® Excel® file. You will first have to

set up the file; see below.

• A Microsoft® Outlook® or Microsoft® Exchange contact list (a *.pst file).

• A vCard file (*.vcf file). A vCard is an electronic business card that is often attached to an email.

1. From the main menu, click the Contacts menu and choose Import Contacts. The Import Contacts wizard

starts.

2. As soon as you click Finish on the wizard, the Contacts tab in Bria is updated to show the imported entries.

Note that none of the entries are set up with availability turned on; in order to view availability of contacts,

you must modify the appropriate entries by changing the Show this contact’s Availability checkbox. See

above for details.

Setting up an Excel File for Import

1. Remove any introductory text or headings from the top of the file. (You can keep text at the end of the file;

it will be ignored during the import.)
