Actually I figured it out a mere half hour after sending this in. Of course
I got caught up in everything else and neglected to post it. Turns out that
the container had a special character in it (comma) and as soon as I forced
the delimiter for the source/destination to something different it worked.
Of course the next big chore is to try and migrater the objects out of that
container eventually so I can use ADSI to manage it. oh well, another
day...
Thanks anyway
Paul

Funny you should mention this.. I do this about quarterly. Seriously.
You didn't mention exactly when you're seeing this error, but the format has
to be 'source,destination' with the full directory path for both. Here is an
example (that will most likely wrap).
/o=Remedy
Corp/ou=Primary/cn=Recipients/cn=acrichton,/o=Peregrine/ou=PSSD/cn=Recipient
s/cn=ann.crichton
I don't believe, although I could be wrong, that capitalization is
important, although its fairly easy to ensure correct capitalization by
using exports from both orgs.
Also, are you running this from one of the Exchange servers, or remotely? I
find ExMerge runs best on one of the Exchange servers, plus you cut the
bandwidth usage in half.
