The process of adding another user's Contacts folder to your own address = book display is somewhat involved. You will need to be able to create -- = at least temporarily -- an Outlook profile that opens another user's = mailbox as the primary mailbox. Proceed with these steps while logged in = under your own Windows account, not the other user's: 1. Create an Outlook profile that connects directly to the other user's = mailbox, not your own. If you are using Outlook 2003, do not select the = option to use Cached Exchange mode. Start Outlook with that profile.=20 2. On the Properties dialog for the other user's Contacts folder, make = sure that it's set to display in the Outlook Address Book and give it a = display name other than contacts, such as Joe's Contacts.=20 3. Close Outlook.=20 4. In Control Panel | Mail, edit the *same profile* (i.e. the one from = Step 1) to change the mailbox from the other user's to your own.=20 5. Still working with the same profile, on the Advanced tab of the = Exchange Server service, add the other user's mailbox as a secondary = mailbox.=20 6. Restart Outlook, and you should see the Joe's Contacts in your = Outlook Address Book as well as your own Contacts folder.=20 7. (Optional) If you are using Outlook 2003, you can now change the = settings for your Exchange account to use Cached Exchange mode. Note that Outlook 2007 does not support this procedure.=20 --=20 Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for=20 Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx =20
