Hi,
I really need your help with a problem.
I'm using Outlook and it talks to exchange (via active directory).
My problem that I have is that outlook saves all the contacts, with a "link" to AD, instead of the contact information.
What I mean is:
Outlook saves a colleagues email address using the following format:
/o=COMPANY/ou=LOCATION/cn=Recipients/cn=USERNAME
What I want is to have the true SMTP address.
I took one night time to manually edit all my contacts (just 500 :banghead: ), and what I did was to copy all the SMTP addresses to notepad and then back to outlook.
That allowed me to export the contacts with their true SMTP address into a csv file.
Today I opened one contact and saw that outlook automatically regained the link to AD! DAMIT!
What I need is the following:
A VBA script (or program) that runs on all my contacts, extracting the SMTP address from all internal contacts and save it instead of the "AD link" (see above)
This so I can export all my contacts to a .csv file and then import it in my webmailer etc.
Would be really great to get your support!
Thanks
Mike
