I have a Contacts folder in my Exchange 2K3SP2 server, with 776 contacts and
I can NOT search (filter) on them in Oultook 2K7 and 2K3 no problems.

When I copy it to my Mailbox, I can then search the folder fine from my
Mailbox.

Any ideas on a fix...?

Thanks,
Tom...

Might want to try making a clear post in the right group. This is more
likely an Exchange issue than an Outlook issue.

I did and they said to post it to Outlook...

I guess a call to $MS$ is needed...

To which search method are you referring? Outlook 2007's new default is to
use Instant Search, which of course would not be indexing Public Folders.
