hyperlinking to an item in Global Address List Options - 2 Names Same
I have had success linking via html from web page to opening a
specific contact record from Microsoft Outlook. I have done it like this: outlook://Big%20Contacts/Contacts/~Peter%20Crawford However, my very large contact database also has people with basically the same name, like John Smith. In the current "Address Card" view inside Microsoft Outlook, one of the John Smith's is always sorted first. If I enter outlook://Big%20Contacts/Contacts/~John%20Smith the first John Smith in the sort order is always opened. However, I want to specify one of the other John Smith's. How can I specifically request a different John Smith. I know the different John Smith's have different (unique) e-mail addresses. There is probably also a unique ID for the "Address Card" record number as well, although I haven't figured out how to find that ID or make a call to it via hyperlinking.

Still haven't figured this out. Anyone got any ideas?
