In OL 2003, what is the effect of Marking a Contact Record as 'Private'?
Will it be viewable if I copy a folder of contacts (with the 'Private' record) to another PC, for others' view in Outlook on their PC? I found no help in OL Help. -- Knowledge Spunge (need spill-checkur) |

it will be visible if you copy it from your mailbox - it will not be visible
to them if you share the folder with them (using Exchange server). if you only want to share non-private, create a view that excludes private contacts and copy the contacts and paste into a new contacts folder - transfer the new folder. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "GeneM office" wrote in message ...

For contact marked "Private", what would happen if I backed up my contacts
and installed them on a new computer, would I be able to access the contacts that had been marked as "Private"?

You will be able to see them - private only has an effect with exchange. But
unless you are using Exchange server, marking them private is pointless when you use a pst. And if you use exchange, connect the new computer to your exchange mailbox. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.
