Hello everybody,I would like to get access -through code (cmdlet?)- to all the contacts of a given mailbox. The case is that I have a cvs file with contacts of a mailbox 'A' and I want to insert all those contacts into a mailbox 'B'. I will really appreciate your help on this.Best Regards,John3D

To the best of my knowledge there is no cmdlet that does this job, unless someone has written a PSSnapin that handles personal contacts.An easy way to achieve your goals is with Outlook 2007:* File, Import and Export, Export to a file, Comma Separated Values (Windows), Select Folder to export from (Contacts) ...* File, Import from another program or file, Comma Separated Values (Windows) ...If you like coding (just as an example, see the EWS part):How do I access my Outlook contacts from my web application?http://weblogs.asp.net/whaggard/archive/2007/01/30/how-do-i-access-my-outlook-contacts-from-my-web-application.aspx If you need help here, you should post to the Exchange ever Development forum:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrdevelopment/threadsYou could also try the Windows PowerShell Forum:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverpowershell/threads MCTS: Messaging | MCSE: S+M | Small Business Specialist

Then she or he must have deleted her/his Contacts, or something is wrong with OWA. I think something is wrong with OWA because contacts on Outlook are not being replicated in OWA. This is for all the mail boxes on my server. Any thoughts?John3D

Not necessarily so. Contacts might be disabled in OWA.

If it is disabled, Contacts folders are still available by using Outlook, but will not be visible from Outlook Web Access. MCTS: Messaging | MCSE: S+M | Small Business Specialist
