When I use Active Directory Computer and Users to create or delete a Global
Address book Distribution list the changes to not propogate to the Outlook
client right away. We are operating the Outlook Client in Cached mode and it
just needs to be updated to see the changes. Is there a way to force an
update to the address book on a workstation?

Yes there is but you should ask this in an Exchange group, microsoft.public.exchange.admin is a good place to start.

Outlook client: Tools -> Send / Receive -> Download Address Book

I think this will do what you are looking for.
