Default Opening Outlook Address Book from Web Page

Any server side code would need to access Exchange directly to download the
GAL and display it using its own rendering.

If the code runs at client then you can use the Outlook 2007 object model to
display the address book using the NameSpace.GetSelectNamesDialog() dialog.
Versions of Outlook before 2007 don't expose any methods for displaying the
address book.

For server side code you could use the server side version of CDO 1.21 (as
one way of doing it) and log into a CDO Session and use CDO's
Session.AddressBook() method.

Not sure if this is the correct part of the outlook forum, but I'm
programming a website in ASP, so VB is close enough.

From our company intranet, users want to be able to search the GAL. Rather
than writing my own interface, how do I go about creating a link or
javascript within my intranet web page that simply opens the Outlook
Address
Book for the user to search?
