Lorie, in your original post, you had the export (or was that import?)
working, but users were excluded from accessing the contacts database?
The problem is Outlook will not let you access the public folders during
the import/export process.
The workaround that I suggested was to create a copy of the dataset and
store it in the public folder. On rereading, you cannot access public
folder? Well, try creating a new database on your system, import the
data you want into that, then give everyone access to that contacts
database.
All I'm offering is workarounds.
I hope that this works. I am building a new exchange server now, so
later today I will try it.

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
