Hi,
this question relates to Outlook 2002 in a MS Exchange environment.
When I compose a new email and click the "To: " button, the list of
people in the "Contacts" is displayed. If I just start typing the email
address, only users in the "Contacts" list are automatically filled in.
I have other contacts lists and was wondering how I can set it up so
that not only people in "Contacts" but also people in other group(s)
can be recognized.

When I click the "To: " button (in New email), under contacts folders,
I
see:

Gllobal Address List
All Address Lists
All Contacts
All Groups
All Users
....
Contacts this is the default

I need to be able to use at least Contacts and All Users.

Thanks.

Open the Address Book interface and click ToolsOptions. Set the name
checking order in the lower pane. You want "Global Address List" and
"Contacts". Keep in mind that if you have the same contact in both the GAL
and Contacts, then the GAL name will be found first and Outlook will not
search further. In most cases this would be what you'd want anyway.
