I have a contact list in a public folder.  I have a database on my local PC
that has data to update the public folder (over 100 contacts).  I need to
export the data from the database into the public folder contact list. In
Outlook, file - Import/Export - does not give you the option to export to
public folder.  Is there a way around this?

You have a contact database in a public folder? Create a copy of that
contact database and store it in a public folder. Run the import routine on
the original contact list and advise users to access the secondary list
while the data import is running.



Or are you saying that none of the public folders are accessible during the
import process?

I guess I don't understand what you mean?

Create a copy of the contact list database to use whilst doing the
import/export?

Hey Everyone!  I have an issue with Public Folders that I am hoping you
could help me with.

We have a contact list in public folders that contains Agents information.
We often have to update this contact list and we would like to be able to
Export information from a database to this contact list.  The problem is
Outlook will not let you access the public folders during the import/export
process.  Is there anyway that you know of to do this?  Even a work around
would be helpful at this point.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance!
Lorie
