Contact "shortcut" or "Alias"?
 
I have Outlook 2003 connected to an Exchange server.

I currently have a master Contact list in a public folder where I try and
keep up to date contact info for all aspects of our company.
I then tell people to copy the contact they need out of the master and put
it in their project contact list.

Is there a way to make their contact be a "link" or "shortcut" or "alias" to
the master list so that if the original contact gets updated then everyone
who copied that contact will automatically get the change?

Thanks
Tim
