I have a data import class written to import the basic values from a .wab
Windows Address Book file into Turba.
The values it imports are DisplayName, LastName, FirstName, DefaultEmail
Address and Nickname and also a combined LastName consisiting of FirstName .
" ". LastName.

I was wondering if anyone had or knew where to find further details on the
.wab format. I would like to extract the other fields but I haven't been
able to work out the rest of the format yet.

Also there is a know issue with detecting if a contact is a contact of
folder name. If anyone can shed more light on .wab file format I'd apprecite
it.

Also is there interest in merging this into the CVS tree?

Cheers
Mike
