You are incorrect... there is a way for you to share your contacts. Whether
or not you have a server or you only have an administrator! Do some checking.

Once again MS launches a half-baked system. "Sharing Outlook Info" wrote: I am in a small 5 person office, but we need to share contacts and calendars.

How frustrating it must be for Richard and Sharing to get a response that offers them no practical guidance. Outlook 2003, in fact, contains only two real-time sharing features, one dependent on Exchange and one on SharePoint. Any other real-time sharing requires use of an extra tool, such as those listed at http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/share.htm#tools .
The latest update for Business Contact Manager *does* provide for limited sharing capability within a local area network. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "barbaralou" wrote in message ...
