Thanks.  This seems to work well.  I convert >400 records and they seem
to come through fine; well, for the fields you thought appropriate, of
course...  

Are you intending to extend your code for not-so-appropriate fields?  If
so, I definitely would like to see the addresses converted and it would
be quite useful to have the notes converted entry text for the org entry
(i.e. not a property).

Thanks again,
eric
