It might not be that useful unfortunately - vtiger itself has quite a 
few customisations (using vtlib of course) to standard modules as well 
as new modules so what I am creating is probably not that re-usable. And 
as this is a "one-time" job (once the client has finished cleaning their 
data) it's a bit rough and ready. I'd be happy to share the Talend 
project with you if you want it once I have finished with it (will 
probably be August/September I reckon). Drop me an email off-line...

Cheers

Al
