Adding Outlook Contacts
 

We add employees cellphone addresses in the email field of the contacts so we
can send them text messages thru Outlook. Because we issue phones to
employees, I am having a problem adding a new employee with an ex employee's
phone address. I have looked everywhere for the ex employee, but cannot find
her anywhere. This contact list is in our Public Folders. Does anyone know
how I can add someone's phone address for a phone that has previously been
used by another employee??

Thanks!
Pam

Adding Outlook Contacts
 

We are using Outlook 2003. What happens when I try to add the cell number
into the field is that it drops down and shows the previous users name. If I
continue typing the phone number and tab to the next field, it removes
anything in the email field.
