    - Outlook 2003 and Sharepoint I am working on a large multicenter project with three other people in a large academic setting. We have Outlook and Access 2003 on our computers. In addition, we have a Sharepoint website that is hosted by a third party. We have a large list of contacts that are devided into various committees and subgroups, and we are running into challenges maintaining the contact lists for communication. I have a couple of questions... At this point, we do not know of a way to link the contact information in our Access database with our Outlook contacts and distribution lists. Is that possible? We have tried creating Outlook distribution lists on the global directory with limited permissions as a means for members of our group to have access to the lists for communications, but this requires negotiating with our IT group to update the list. As our contact list is dynamic and there are frequent changes, this has proven ineffective. Is there a way to share contacts that allows others to send mail to shared distribution lists? We have been successful in sending mail to shared contacts, but the distribution lists will not work. Is it possible to maintain the contact list on Sharepoint in a way that would maintain the distribution lists? If not, do you have any suggestions on how we could integrate these 3 Microsoft products in a way that we are not having to update and maintain 3 separate lists of contact information? Thanks!

    - Contact filtering Does anyone know if there is a way to create a contact view in Outlook 2007 that is filtered by the first letter of either the last name field or the file as field. I used to use tabview organizer, and their tech support and I worked out SQL code (for the SQL tab) that allowed for this in their product, but they have not been able to get it to work properly with Outlook 2007, so I have lost the functionality since I upgraded. I have 34000 contacts in Outlook, and it would be great to be able to only look at a smaller list (by letter), rather than having to scroll through all 34000 contacts every time I need to find someone. Also, (and this is probably for the 3rd party addons discussion group, but someone might know) does anyone know of an addon similiar to 2007, that allows for multiple views to be overlapped (Tabview allowed me to create a view, i.e. "clients", using the built in view creator, and, then further filter the list by each letter of the last name, thus I could switch between clients and colleagues (2 different views), and then narrow the results (using a seperate view selector) to all people who's last name begins with each letter, thus I could very quickly sort through and find a contact within such a long list Tag: How do I delete duplicate contacts that activesync has created?

    - Outlook 2007: Missing "Contacts" folder after power failure A friend has a computer with Windows XP and Office 2007. Recently they had a power failure where the computer was on at the time. When the power came back, they had some difficulty logging back into the computer but they eventually got in. They have recovered most of their email content however there are two users/profiles on the machine and both email profiles are missing their respective "contacts" folder along with the content. I ran a search for the .pst files on the hard drives and could not find the files. Could the power outage have caused partial data loss? This hgardly seems likely as both contacts folders are gone but it seems as though those are the only folders that are missing. Thanks in advance for your help!

    - How do I delete recently imported contacts in Outlook 2000? I recently lost the display on my IBM T40. Luckily, my wife has the same laptop, so I exported my outlook contacts (Outlook 2000) from my laptop, and imported them into a separate Personal Folder File (or so I thought) on my wife's laptop. Not only did it load my 750 contacts into her Outlook contact list, but it duplicated them. So instead of having her 150 contacts, she has 1,650 contacts. I am looking for a way to undo this and perhaps take her outlook program back to a time prior to my attempt at the import. Tag: How do I delete duplicate contacts that activesync has created?

    - Global Contact List for use on Mobile Phone Outlook 2007 Exchange Server 2003 We would like to be able to create a public contact list that can be shared by multiple users whilst still maintaining our own private contact folder for use on our mobile phones. However our mobile phones will only retrieve contact information from our default Personal Contacts folder (not address book) so we need to be able to have the Public Contacts folder update our Private Contacts. All of the software that can be purchased to do this states that you should purchase the software vice a pricey exchange server, but we already have the pricey exchange server so I was hoping to not have to buy the 3rd party software.

It would be helpful if you gave us a little more information. For
instance What version of Outlook are you using? What version of
ActiveSync? What have you already tried? How many contacts are we
talking about?
