open contacts through command line

**gary** · March 29th 06, 04:41 PM posted to microsoft.public.outlook.contacts

I am attempting to set up an intellimouse shortcut to open outlook to the
contacts. I have searched and found the command line of c:\program
files\microsoft office\office11\outlook /select:[folder name] All I get when
putting contacts in here is an invalid argument error. Does anyone know what
the correct syntax would be?

Thank you very much

Open Help in Outlook and look for "command line". Choose "Switch reference"
and read the syntax of the /select qualifier.
