updating email address field from in-cell editing (table view)
 
All,

I had several users who were able to edit email addresses for contacts on
both PF and private contacts folder while viewing contacts in table view.
example, modify Phone list or by category view and add email address field
to the view. Try to edit the email address for a contact.

This worked fine in Outlook 2002 SP2 with Exchange 2003 SP2 but is not
working on Exchange 2003 Sp2 with Outlook 2003 SP2.

Has anyone seen this and know how I can go back to using this small but
critical functionality?

Thanks,

Rafael

That's not possible. You'll need to open the contacts in Outlook 2003.

Hi Sue and thanks for the reply. I did not give up on this issue and
finally got it to work in the most unconventional way.

Here is what I did:

1. Installed Outlook XP(2002 SP3)
2. Logged in as user1 and created a view that allowed me to edit the email
address field
3. Went back to the original PC that has Outlook 2003 SP2 and when I switch
to the view created previously, I am now able to edit emails from that view.

Not sure what happened here but I got it to work the way I wanted it so,
viva la persistence.

Thanks again!

Rafael
