Default Finding Contacts in Public Folders

Hello,

I've seen many references to this problem, but no solutions. Could
someone please confirm whether this is a fixable problem?

I am using Outlook 2003 and Exchange 2003. I have created a public
folder to store shared contacts.

If I use the Find option in Outlook it returns no records, regardless
of what I am searching for. However using Advanced Find always works.

After some experimentation it appears that on public folders with only
a few hundred contacts this problem doesn't occur. As soon as I add a
few thousand contacts to the folder, then the Outlook Find option
ceases to work.

Even if there isn't a solution, I would appreciate it if someone would
just say that this is a known problem.

Many thanks

Nick Taylor
