Dear Users:
I need help in converting Hotmail messages to a CSV (comma separated
value)
flat file for database importing. Can this be done using any Open
Office
software? I believe it can be done by importing into Outlook and
then to a
CSV file, but I am looking for other solutions.
Hi David,
I am not sure of the "How to" but it would seem that importing into
Calc then exporting as CSV would be the bet way. Not sure how Outlook
would do exporting the text though.
Could you give a bit more on the format used?

It would be a help if we know what the CSV file will be used for.
Will it be used to import your email address book to another email package
like Thunderbird? Or are you going to use it in a Database or Spreadsheet?
If the end file is for an email client, many will use the exported/saved
stuff from Outlook
directly. When I moved from Outlook to Thunderbird, I was able to just
import the stuff
directly. But it all depends on what you are using the CSV file for.
