1) without a target to put it in, it would either have to rely on the contents of the csv file else fail. IIRC, import requires the target be in the file. 2) Export is copy only. You can export away and not change anything. Performance can be impacted, so it's not "free" but it can be done with any user credentials for the most part. Personally I prefer script to csvde, but that's me. Note that you can log CSVDE transactions which will help to troubleshoot the syntax issues you'll run into. Al

Without involving the complexity and maintenance of a Notes connector for this one time import, it appears as though Microsoft believes csvde is the best bet. So, based on the limited csvde help (from csvde /?) I am left with several crtical questions: 1) When csvde -i -f c:\filename.csv is run, where in AD will the contacts be imported when the OU is not specified in the command? 2) When an export is performed, is AD modified or is it a simple copy? I do not have a test environment available to me this morning, and I am running out of time, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
