    - Cheating the Contacts distribution list? Currently using Outlook and Exchange 2007. As best practice when creating Contact based distribution lists you should try to keep less than 100 if you keep the contact's that were added detail to absolute minimum. So of course one of our High level execs wants to create a DL in his contacts with 800 SMTP addresses. So we created 8 separate DL groups with 100 persons in each group. Now, to cheat the normal error when more are added to a DL, can I create a single combined DL where each of those other 8 distribution lists are added within? We want to make this so he just has to send to one group but of course once sent it goes to all those subgroups. Does this work or will it also give an error regarding DL size, etc? Thanks!!

    - Any better way to add a shared contact folder to address list I have seen previous posts regarding a shared contact list has been added to an Outlook profile but can't seem to be placed in the Outlook Address book. Was mentioned about opening the other users mailbox and then keeping that mailbox open in the other profile. Is there no cleaner way to simply add that shared contact folder into the address book? The user that has been given rights to the contacts has also been set as an Owner on the shared Contacts folder but to give rights to the mailbox itself and then also leave that in the active profile just seems really bad. So, any new clean way to add someone else's shared contact list into the other persons Outlook 2007 address book? Also, this was a sub folder of the first persons contact folder called "Students". So "Students" was shared and we want that to also be seen as an address book on the other person's Outlook. Thanks!! Tag: create a email group Tag: 123454

    - Outlook Connector Contacts & Distribution List issues I use an MSN e-mail account with Outlook Connector for OUtlook 2007 and I've had an issue for quite a while that I can't seem to tolerate much longer. To start, I have all my family members on a distribution list set up (as Family Reunion) and lately I've added three new people to my contacts list, but when I try to add them to the Distribution list, I'm told that the distribution list contains contacts that haven't yet been synchronized, press F9 to synchronize your contacts, then save you list. Thing is, hitting F9 does the send/receive thing, but I still can't save the changes to the list. Then to top it all off, when I open up a web browser & sign into MSN, pull up my contacts, they're all there, including the three new ones I can't add to my distribution list, but my distribution list (Family Reunion) just isn't there. How do I get this to act right. I want to add my three new cousins to my list & I would really like for my distribution list to show up in MSN, though that's only secondary really, seeing how I'm using Outlook as my e-mail program. Please, someone, help me! :( Tag: create a email group Tag: 123448

    - Stand alone Outlook 2007 can't export......FAE.dll error message When I decided in November, 2007 that I was going to get an iPhone in Spring, 2008 my research showed that I could no longer use Lotus Organizer. Never having installed Outlook from my Office 2003 H/S, I marched out and purchased Outlook 2007 stand alone, installed it on my 2 year old HP and went to work copying manually, all my contacts, appointments, etc. Purchased my iPhone last week and of course, it won't sync with Outlook. After four days (literally) on the phone with Apple and Microsoft Research Techs, the problem is NOT solved. However, trying for a workaround, it was decided several days ago to export my contacts to Windows Address Book and then sync the iPhone with WAB (which works). However, when we try to export I get the following message: TRANSLATION ERROR An error has occurred in the Microsoft Office Outlook Translator while initializing a translator to build a field map. Internal Error: Unable to load File Access Engine (.FAE) DLL, additional Outlook translators can be instaled from the Valupack." The Microsoft Research Tech says MS is 'working on that error message but they don't know what causes it. Many people have it'. Any insight here? I am running Windows XP Home, installed by the factory on my HP when I purchased it. Office 2003 H/S (Word, Excel & Powerpoint) - Outlook 2003 was NEVER installed. Outlook Express did come on this machine when I bought it but I never even used it. The MS tech says it is part of the OS. Thanks, TeddyMaude Tag: create a email group Tag: 123443
