Contacts Duplicated when Copied to a Shared Contact List
We are running Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 SP2. All clients are
running Microsoft Outlook 2003 SP2 in cached mode. We have a user who has shared out a contact list on a resource account. When copying a contact from this shared list to her personal contacts folder, it will prompt her if the entry is a duplicate. However, when copying from a personal contact list to the shared contact list, it does * NOT * prompt, therefore, creates a duplcate entry. I have scoured the message boards and see there are several utilities to remove duplicate entries, but does anyone know why it is not prompting the user that this is a duplicate? As far as I know, they are not using any custom forms.

Contacts Duplicated when Copied to a Shared Contact List
The "prompt for dupliicate" feature works only on a user's own Contacts folder, AFAIK.
