What are you entering in the field infomation in the import file?  Entering
a null is usually done by using "" (a pair of delimiters, with nothing
between them) when using csv files.

Here's our situation... 

We are trying to clear out a field that we used to use in Exchange.  For
simplicity, I'm trying to use an import to overwrite what is currently
stored in the field with a blank field.  Is there some trick to doing this?

I tried both the overwrite and append options, I tried adding the Mode -
Modify column in the import file.  I even tried to import a space into the
field.  I can easily change the information, I just can't get rid of it.  

Running Exchange 5.5 

Thanks for any suggestions. 
Angie
