How to import contacts from Novell Groupwise to Outlook?
My work data base is Novell Groupwise. I would like to share my business
contacts with my personal computer using a data key. Any suggestions on translating the data? |

Sounds like you have 2 questions with the assumption being that you're
talking about Outlook on your personal computer First - how to get data out of Groupwise into a format which can be imported by Outlook - this may be what you need: Export Address Book Group Members to CSV http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/1684.html *** caveat - the standard Outlook import function will not import any custom field information if you have any Second - syncing via a common field between the two Outlook has no import capability to import based on a common key - you'd need to write your own code or use a 3rd party product for that (such as ContactGenie DataPorter - if you're only looking for one way data movement - reverse updating won't be available until the release of the ContactGenie 2.1 series). In any event, you have to determine which field (or group of fields) would uniquely identify a contact between the two which could be either any standard or custom field combination (in terms of CGD). You may also find other potential solutions to your requirement he http://www.slipstick.com/addins/contacts.htm (there are other pages on Slipstick which may have other applicable alternatives) Karl -- __________________________________________ Karl Timmermans - The Claxton Group ContactGenie - Importer 1.3 / DataPorter 2.0 "Power contact importers for MS Outlook '2000/2003" http://www.contactgenie.com "JB" wrote in message ...
