The Contacts Database in Outlook has replaced the Personal Address Book as the
preferred place to store custom email addresses. We want Outlook to recognize the old contact list when deploying a new workstation without having to open manually.

... The Contacts Database in Outlook has replaced the Personal Address Book as the preferred place to store custom email addresses. We want Outlook to recognize the old contact list when deploying a new workstation without having to open manually. Again, Outlook has no structure called a "contacts list". Moreover it also doesn't have a "contacts database". Outlook uses a unified database (either an Exchange mailbox or a PST - Personal Folders file) to hold all of its data: messages, contacts, calendar, notes, journal, tasks, etc. It's all in the same place. If you add the data store to Outlook properly, then all of that data is automatically available. You haven't said what type(s)s of account you're using. Are you using Exchange, POP/SMTP, or IMAP/SMTP? -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back with you. We are using an Exchange
Server. Also I am referring to personal contacts that a user sets up in Outlook. "Brian Tillman [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: "JoAnna" wrote in message ...
