In Outlook, when I click the Address Book icon, the "Show names from the:"
drop-down provides several choices. Under the All Address Lists section of
that drop down, I see several things but specifically:
All Contacts
and
All Users
I only appear under the All Users list, but some of my co-workers show up
only under All Contacts. There seems to be no rhyme or reason between the
two. What is the difference between an Outlook Contact and just a User
anyway (as it applies to this listing I mean)? Contacts have a globe icon
and Users have no icon I can see so far.
Thanks in advance!

No answer possible without knowing your Outlook version and information
store.

Both those lists refer to types of entries on the server, not Outlook contacts. Users are people with mailboxes on your company server. Contacts are people who have mailboxes elsewhere. The globe symbolizes those external addresses. Discuss with your email administrator if you want more information.
