Shared contacts wont show up in "show names from the: " dropdown
Good morning all,
I hope i can get some help here with this one. I have a bunch of shared contact i can see in my outlook (all from the same user). I want to create a new email and send to those contacts but they do not show up in the "show names from the: " dropdown. Ive tried to add the contacts to the view from Address book view (toolsadressingadd) but i cant find them to add them. any ideas? thank you in advance.

Under each contact folder, have you enabled the folder to be seen as an
Outlook Address book? Right-click on the contact folder, select Properties Select Outlook Address Book Tab Make sure that "Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book" is checked and give the folder a unique name (other than Contacts) Charles "Brian905" wrote: Good morning all, I hope i can get some help here with this one.

how are they shared? if they are in another users mailbox, you can't make
them an address book. If they are a public folder, you can. See http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/oloabpf.htm for a hack you can try to see the other user's contacts in your address book. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: Let's Really Fix Outlook 2010 http://forums.slipstick.com/forumdisplay.php?f=34 "Brian905" wrote in message ...
