I would like to have one place in Outlook to store all employee home address,
phone, birthday info.

This would then be shared out to all employees, so that this info appears in
their contact files, and on their blackberries.

I've done this with Vcards, but updating a Vcard isn't possible when it's
been emailed out and each employee has put it into their contacts folder.

Thanks, Joy

Are you using exchange server?

I'm sorry, yes - I'm using Exchange Server and Outlook 2003, soon to change
to 2007.

You could make a public folder for the list or get a utility so users can
update their data in the active directory.

Users would need to copy the contacts they need to their contact folder
since you can't always sync the GAL or PF with devices.
