Show Public Folder Contacts in Contacts
Ok, maybe this is easy, I don't know.
We have a public folder "Firm Contacts" where all of our contacts are stored. Each user has a "Contacts" folder in their mailbox. I would like "Firm Contacts" to show up underneath the Contacts folder. I can drag and drop it in my mailbox, but then it seems to copy the entire public folder over, which is not what I want. I just want a shortcut underneath Contacts that points to Firm Contacts, and I want all users to have this. Is this possible?

Drag Firm Contacts to Public Folders\Favorites.

If I do this and click the Contacts tab (in OL 2003) I see the Firm Contacts under "Other Contacts" (an effect that does not seem to follow my multiple instances of Outlook, I must click "Add to Other Contacts" at each place). It is not quite what I was looking for. What I want is the Firm Contacts to show underneath (or in addtion to) Contacts in the *Folder List* view.

The Public Folder\Favorites method is the one you must use to get that folder into the Contacts navigation pane. You cannot choose which group it will be in.
