I just did it yesterday, and it worked pretty good. If you have the BCM
update (I assume you do) there is a slick function to import from 6.0. Its
under File => Import and Export => Business Contact Manger for Outlook.
Choose import a file, then choose Act (.dbf). Act 6.0 IS SUPPORTED as I just
did it. 6.0 is the latest version supported. It actually did bring in
opportunities, notes, activities, to-do etc. Most will need to polished up
quite a bit, but it did a great job of importing my 2500 contacts. You will
save the export of your ACT data as a .bcm file, then re-use the steps above
(import and export) to import a .bcm file to your database. The wizard will
walk you through what to do.

Cheers
