We currently use public folders to share and update contacts such as
prospect, leads etc. In one of my folders I have about 3000 contacts. We
have about 7 clients that are all using different versions of outlook and
windows. My version is outllook 2003 running on windowsXP and so is my one
colleague who is having trouble with views. We generaly view the contacts by
category. Well under one partiuclar category there are 7 contacts; however,
my colleague's view only displayss 5(and the count is 5) The rest of my
colleagues and myself displays 7(and the count is 7.)

If the one person does a search he does locate the contact and the category
is there.

Does anyone know why or how to fix it?

Never seen it before.

Check if there are any filters set for the view the guy is looking at.

Judy:Thank you so much. We had set up filters a while ago and had forgotten
about them.

Best regards,
