Import from a ".oab" file

[SubnetJO]

Hi all.
I have a "off-line address book" file (.oab).
I would like to import all the contacts in the oab files in the "contacts"
folder in outlook.

If would be possible to automate the operaton via vbscript or vba, It would
be great!!!

There is a way to do that?

Really thank you for your help.

The .oab files are files used by Outlook to build the display you see in the Address Book. Their format is undocumented.

What's the point of the exercise anyway, since you already have the data available in the address book?
