Default How to display ACT database contacts in Dist. List dropdown?

I am trying to create a Distribution List. I use ACT 2005 as my Database and
it is not showing up in the Dist. List drop down either as a choice, nor do
those contacts show up in any of the lists that do display.

Default How to display ACT database contacts in Dist. List dropdown?

Unless this question has been completely misunderstood - why would you
assume that the Act 2005 contacts would appear anywhere as an option within
Outlook? If it is based on something that the Act 2005 documentation states
should be possible based on some kind of addin provided by Act, then the
question would need to be posed to the Act folks since there is no "native"
support for showing contacts within an Act database (or any other database
for that matter). Please note, synchronization capabilities between 2
different products to transfer contact info is something entirely different.
The sync capability in this type of scenario is something provided by the
vendor of the "other" product and not something that comes as a standard
option with Outlook.

You should also always provide all essential basic information such as
Outlook version being used along with any other "detailed" supporting info
in any question posed.
