MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / February 2008DL Created in Public Filder is Only Visible to Creator
Outlook 2003. Exchange 2003. We have a shared contacts folder in public folders that is visible to all our folks, and it editable by some. I am the system administrator, and when logged in under an account that is in the Administrators group Icreate a distribution list in this shared contacts folder. When others try to access this DL, they cannot even see it in the shared contacts. Why would this happen? How can it be fixed? Thanks.  SignatureDr. Doug Pruiett Good News Jail & Prison Ministry www.goodnewsjail.org As Russ Valentine suggested - this post would be better suited to the Exchange newsgroup.

Under the "Forms" tab of the properties of the shared folder (make sure you are accessing the properties as the owner of the folder) I needed to select "Any Form" under the section "Allow these forms in this folder." It was set to allow just one specific form (which we designed for our contacts). Hence, the form for a DL was not being allowed. Now it works! Thanks.

Thanks for pointing out the missing (crucial) piece of data - the DL was not using the standard form but a user defined one. ALL of that data is needed to get help in Newsgroups :) Here are some tips about how to post questions: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=555375 Regards Judy Gleeson MVP Outlook Trainer and Consultant There are various articles about using Outlook here: www.judygleeson.com/articles.aspx Canberra, Australia "What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult for each other?"
