Q: Can I transfer contacts from outlook to be saved on my phone after outlook is deleted??

Recently my outlook program shut down, so all of my business contacts were lost. Is there a way to transfer those contacts to be not only stored on my phone when outlook is working but to actually transfer them to be saved on the phone?

iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1

Export them from Outlook to a .csv file that can be imported into another contact management program or Gmail.

Ask Microsoft for support. This is an Apple forum.

Outlook is not an Apple product. The inability to export your contacts from Outlook because it crashed is not an Apple or iPhone issue. Call Microsoft back or try checking their forums.
