Created Specific categories in contacts like risk mgr,
finance, etc. so I could send emails to all risk mgr
contacts when info came of use. Is there any way of doing
this or anyway around this??

The best way would be to create a distribution list.  Do
you know how?

No. That is not the best way. A better way is to make use of the Categories
he has already created.
Use the By Category view of your Contacts Folder. Select the Category Header
> Actions > New message to Contact

Thank you so much.  Your explanation saved me hours of time.  I appreciate having you as a resource.

I actually found a way to do it. On the view menu, just
click on BY CATEGORY and it sorts for you how ever you
want.
Another question if you don't mind. When I add specific
categories to my Contacts, how do I make these categories
available to everyone on the server?
Thanks,
Adam

The master Category list is part of each user's Windows registry. Users can
see what categories other users have put on items, but don't know what
categories the other users have on their master lists. See
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/olcat.htm for more info.
