What is the best way to import a csv file into a contacts folder? Right
now I have a manual process that is a long and tedious method, but it
works. Basically here is what I do:

- Open csv file from an email, delete the top 2 lines, save as csv.
- Go file import/export in outlook, import from another file or program
- csv windows, destination: mailbox:DID (it's a contacts folder I
created in my mailbox on the server.)
- map custom fields and click finish.
- Then I copy it over to the appropriate public folder

I'm really hoping to automate the method. Could I use java or
javascript/html/xml or something to process the csv file into exchange?

I apologise if this is in the wrong group. If so, please tell me where
to better post it. Otherwise, helpful input appreciated. Thanks!
 
You may find the info on the following page of interest - provides ability
to automate, import direct to any contact folder including Exch PF folders,
and update pre-existing contacts (for ContactGenie DataPorter only) and
supports user-defined fields with or without custom form.
