Default copying contact in word table to outlook address book

I made a contact list in a table in word, and now I want to copy those
adresses to Outlook. When I tries to drag and drop, it put all of the
information in one line (for example: ADress, first and last name, company
name all in one line). How do I copy the contacts, which are already broken
down catergorically, into Outlook without cutting and pasting each part
individually?

Thanks

Convert the table to comma-delimited text, save as a .csv text file and then
import into Outlook.
