SUMMARY
=======
Occasionally, it may be necessary to change the formatting of the Full Name
field for an entire postoffice. Although it is possible to do this by using the
Mail Administrator program (ADMIN.EXE) and changing each name manually, it is
more efficient to use the Import utility (IMPORT.EXE).
MORE INFORMATION
================
To use the IMPORT.EXE utility to change the Full Name field for an entire
postoffice, complete the following steps:
1. At the MS-DOS command prompt, type the following:
" import -x -dm admin -p<password> -fd:\exp1.txt" (without the
quotation marks)
This will produce a file in the following format:
A g10to4 PCM:NET1/PO1/g10to4
A g15to9 PCM:NET1/PO1/g15to9
A Administrator PCM:NET1/PO1/Admin
A adminsch PCM:NET1/PO1/adminsch
A PO1 User One PCM:NET1/PO1/one1
A one2 PCM:NET1/PO1/one2
A one3 PCM:NET1/PO1/one3
A one4 PCM:NET1/PO1/one4
A Administrator PCM:NET2/PO2/Admin
A adminsch PCM:NET2/PO2/adminsch
A g20to4 PCM:NET2/PO2/g20to4
A g25to9 PCM:NET2/PO2/g25to9
A two1 PCM:NET2/PO2/two1
A two2 PCM:NET2/PO2/two2
The goal is to change all of the NET1/PO1 users' Full Names to the same format
as that of PO1 User One.
2. Reformat the file using Excel or a similar tool so that it looks similar to
the list below:
M one2 PCM:NET1/PO1/one2
PO1 User 2 PCM:NET1/PO1/one2
M one3 PCM:NET1/PO1/one3
PO1 User 3 PCM:NET1/PO1/one3
M one4 PCM:NET1/PO1/one4
PO1 User 4 PCM:NET1/PO1/one4
3. At the MS-DOS command prompt, type:
" import -dm admin -p<password> -a -f:c\imp1.txt" (without the
quotation marks)
4. To test the results, type:
" import -dm admin -x -fc:\exp2.txt" (without the quotation marks)
