Set "Contacts" as default "Show Names from the" on install
Is there a programatic way to setup the client's Profile or launch Outlook so that the "Contacts" list is on the top of the list from first use? I did not see a Command-line switch related to this and understand almost anything "can be" accomplished with Outlook, so I am only wondering if there is an "easy" method. Heh.

Dear Dennis,
normally you can configure Outlook by creating a "PRF" file, but Outlook Addressbooks are the exception, they can not be configured by PRF files. What are PRF files? "Customizing Outlook Profiles by Using PRF Files" http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/or...402581033.aspx Maybe it helps. -- Oliver Vukovics Share your Outlook PST files without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Synchronisation for Outlook and Exchange: Public SyncTool http://www.publicshareware.com "Dennis C.

I'm assuming, then, that what people get now is the GAL showing as the first choice. When I changed the "Show this address list first" option in the Address Book interface from "Global Address List" to "Contacts", it changed the registry value HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Tillman\9207f3e0a3b11019908b080 02b2a56c2\01023d06. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]
