Default Shared database not showing on all computers

Hi, thanks in advance for your assistance. We have 4 computers sharing a
main database maintained on our server thru the Microsoft Exchanger Server,
using Outlook 2007. I have full permissions to add/update remotely from the
server .

Problem is: each computer shows a different number of contacts in that same
folder and recently added contacts are not visible. I have tried restarting
Outlook and the computer, did not help.

An extensive look online for assistance with this brought up nothing to even
guide me in the right direction. I have checked sharing permissions and I do
have full access.

Is there a setting I missed?

Is this a public folder or is it a contacts folder shared from a
particular mailbox?

If it's a shared mailbox, Outlook cached mode could be the culprit.
Disable cached mode and see if the problem disappears.

This is accessible from File - Cached Exchange Mode in Outlook 2007.
