MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / December 2005show this folder as an e-mail address book
In our organization we are having an address book in Public Folders. This address book has to be used by a lot of different people. To find this addresses automatically the option "show this folder as an e-mail address book" has to be signed on. The only problem is that every person has to do this personally. Is there a solution to do this automatically for all the persons in the organisation? eg. by a registry key or a setting through GPO's? Thanks It can be done with a script setting the MAPIFolder.ShowAsOutlookAB property to True.

The only problem i do have for the moment is the diversity of office applications. The script with the ShowAsOutlookAB property works fine in 2003 and Xp, but it doesn't work in earlier versions. Do you know something that could help me with this problem. Thx in advance > It can be done with a script setting the MAPIFolder.ShowAsOutlookAB property to True. I think you already know the solution: If you want to be able to script what folders are in the address book, you need to upgrade to Outlook 2002 or 2003.
