I'm not sure about Outlook 2000 but exporting 'Contacts' as a .csv file from Outlook 98 is pretty flaky especially if you use the "note" field. I had to use a text editor to be sure the various fields had the delimiters and quotes in the right places. This could be a long and painful cleanup job. Also if you are importing to Evolution, it won't read in .csv files directly. You must run cvs2vcard.pl to convert it to a vcard file and then import it.
