We have setup SharePoint 2.0 with a Contacts list.
We have also linked it to our Exchange / Outlook
vis the "link to Outlook" link on the SharePoint List.

Question -
How is the mapping of fields handled & determined ?
Is it only field names that match the default ones in the Outlook Address
Card,
or is there some "mapping" definition in SharePoint that can be modified ?


ie - for Mobile Phone - the only way for it to show up correctly in Outlook,
was to actually add a "description" of Mobile Phone to the SharePoint
column,
even though the title of the column was already Mobile Phone
otherwise Outlook was showing the SharePoint Mobile Phone as the Outlook
Business Phone.

It's interesting in Outlook to go to a screen that will list all the fields
of an address contact
(click on entry card - click on tab All Fields - click on pull down All
Contact Fields)

Then see all the mapped fields... like Phone 1 Selected / Selector thru
Phone 8 Selected / Selector,
but have no way of figuring out the magic of where Outlook is being told
which fields to grab from SharePoint 2.0
