Is there any way that the Autofill feature can look at
all address books available instead of just looking at
just the GAL. This is annoying as most people now the
internal users address' and would like the search to
continue onto the Outlook Address Books instead.

Regards

Mark

You need to specify what you mean by autofill. Outlook has 2 similar
features (neither called Autofill): autocompletion, which does not use the
Outlook Address Book at all, and autoresolution, which does.

I'm presuming that it must be autoresolution in that
case. When I click the TO: button I want autoresolution
to look in my Public Folder Address books as well as the
GAL, or instead of the GAL.

Is this possible.

Many Thanks

Mark

Yes. Rather hard to tell you how without knowing your Outlook version. Also,
be aware that autoresolution will search until it finds a match, but will
not continue searching all folders thereafter.
