MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / June 2006How to setup contacts for company
Hello, I am IT of a company, probably 25 people in usa, 10 in panama. (this is office people in company) They had a large address book/contact list in Microsoft Access before I worked here, I have converted it over to outlook 2003 public contact list. Thier is 1300 contacts in it. Now everyone also has thier private contact list, buy my boss want all the contacts in the public folder so everyone has access to them and so thier pda's will sync with all the info. I realize I could make subfolders under the public contact list for IT, Sales, etc.... Or I could make categories in one Public Contact list. But I dont like to dig thru 3000 contacts to find a contact i need, I mean i only have 20 contacts in my list, why mess with 3000. Maybe thier is a way to sync/mirror everyoens private contact list into the public contact list?? > Now everyone also has thier private contact list, buy my boss want all > the contacts in the public folder so everyone has access to them and > so thier pda's will sync with all the info. PDAs generally cannot sync with public folders.  SignatureBrian Tillman You don't need to dig through to find Contacts - type their first or last name in the Contacts Lookup Window (part of the Standard Toolbar) and hit Enter. -- Judy Gleeson - MVP Outlook Acorn Training and Consulting Canberra, Australia www.acorntraining.com.au When you post in here, always include your version, SP level, and mode (if applicable) of Outlook - you can find this information in Help | About.
