Hi All

We are running SQL Server & Outlook with an exchange server. We are
looking for a way to import the address book & email details into a
database table.

We have managed to do this with MS Access by using the import option
exchange(). Is there a similar way this can be done in SQLServer 2000

I'm not familiar with Exchange, however if you can export the addresses to a
CSV file, then DTS or bcp.exe can import the data. Alternatively, if you
already have them in Access, then you could use DTS or a linked server to
pull them into MSSQL.

OLE DB Provider for Exchange

From MS SQL 2k Books On Line ...

The Microsoft® OLE DB Provider for Exchange exposes data stored in a
Microsoft Exchange 2000 Web Store in tabular form. This data can be queried
using an SQL-like language that is very similar to the SQL subset supported
by the OLE DB Provider for Microsoft Indexing Service.

Microsoft SQL ServerT 2000 distributed queries can be used to query data
from the Exchange Web Store through this OLE DB Provider and can be joined
with tables in SQL Server. The Exchange Web Store should be located in the
same computer as SQL Server. Web Stores located in other computers cannot be
accessed using the OLE DB Provider for Exchange.
