I have an executive assistant with delegate rights that adds contacts
for her boss. When she adds a contact it is also created in her contact
list. How can I resolve this so that she can add contacts to her boss
and not have them duplicated in her contact list?

Tell us exactly what steps she's using and exactly what permissions she has on the boss' Contacts folder.

She opens her bosses mailbox from her Outlook (2003) and goes to his
contact list and adds a contact. Then she opens her contacts and the
contact is also in her list. I am not able to see how her permissions
are configured at this time.

What are the *exact* steps she uses to add a contact? (It's very hard to troubleshoot a problem that you don't know how to reproduce.)
