My organization is migrating from Novell Groupwise to Ms Exchange. Everything
seems to be going well, however, we have the need to to import some of our
users Group wise personal address books into out look. Is there a way to
administratively import all of the address books? Your help would be greatly
appreciated.

When we did the migration from groupwise to exchange (notice I didn't use the term "upgrade") we had to export each users personal address books from the groupwise client itself. This will create a ".NAB" file that is in comma delimited format. We then brought them into Excel and needed only to clean up the first row which was the field names. Once we saved them, we opened Outlook 2007 and could then import the files. You may need to map some of the fields from groupwise to outlook, but that's part of Outlooks import process anyway.
