Hi
Can anyone tell me if there are any tools available to migrate from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2003?

 
There is, it's on the CD, you have to do a whole bunch of steps you need to complete prior to installing exchange 2003.

I'm in the process of this now. I have a call into MS for some help as there is some stuff I am not getting. Once I have migrated I promise to post what I encountered during my upgrade.
 
Commercially, there are plenty...the most expensive and feature-rich is Quest Migration Manager.

Another free way to do it would by using the scripting/batch abilities of ExMerge (see the documentation for ExMerge for more details).

Both methods basically move the mailboxes from your old 5.5 server to a new Exchange 2003 server via PSTs.
