[dev] Windows Address Book Import

[Mike Coughlan]

Is this an interactive tool that can speak directly to the Addressbook via
some Windows API, or does it read a flat file?  Also, do you know if the
Outlook Contacts folder is the Addressbook? I wish I had a dev box to test &
thanks.

It takes a .wab (windows address book) file and then you map the fields from the
wab to the turba fields the same as importing a cvs file.

I know outlook express use .wab files, not sure about outlook.
