sharing contacts between user profiles
I have two user profiles, lets call them work and home. I would like to
have all my contact information availalble in both profiles. Here is an example. I add Jane smith to my contacts when I am using my home profile, and the next day at work I'd like to be able to send her an email using my work profile. Is there an easy way to have the profiles share a contacts file or do i just have to do an export every week and then update the work profile by importing from that exported file. thanks. |

You can reference the PST of one profile in the other profile as well. Since you can't have more than one profile open at any one time, there should be no conflict for the PST. -- Brian Tillman |

sharing contacts between user profiles
Hi Actor of All Trades,
How to share Outlook on one PC: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/olshare1.htm You could also create a new PST file (file/new/Personal Folder), give this PST file the name "Shared Contacts" and add this PST file in both profile. Now you can move or copy the contacts from your Personal Contact folder into the "shared contact" folder. After you see this PST file in both profiles you can add this contact folder as "Outlook Addressbook". Click on this contact folder/right mouseclick/Outlook Addressbook/ set the flag for "Show this folder as Outlook Addressbook". If you want to make this new Contact folder as your default Outlook Addressbook go in the Outlook Menu to: "Tools/Addressbook/Tools/Options" and select the "shared contacts" as your "default" contact folder. -- Oliver Vukovics Share Outlook without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Share your contacts, calendars or e-mails http://www.publicshareware.com "Actor of All Trades" schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:sMoNg.531488$iF6.215286@pd7tw2no...

It can also be used on one PC - just have to be installed on both profiles - everything is possible and not too complicated: http://shareo.4team.biz/?pcode=607180190pwkkd3 |
