Importing contacts as Primary contact?

Question
-
Hi all,I have an import with about 500 records, consisting of accounts & contacts. When I import the accounts first, and then the contacts, connected to the accounts, they do end up as contact for the correct accounts.However, I'd like these contacts to become primary contacts for the accounts. How do I make this happen with the import?

I think I will try this. The blog entry about 'Use Workflow To Set The Primary Contact' does exactly what I needed. :-)

Take a look at this tutorial by John O'Donnell on the DMM to see how to import multiple entities and create the desired relationships.

Can it turn a contact into a primary contact?
