i feel for you, Tom.  i know those users.  they are the ones who lack the
patience to learn the skills to use such 21st-century technology as outlook
address books.  unfortunately, there is no way to spoon-feed them.  i
recommend writing the simplest possible instructions, putting them on an
internal web page, and letting them figure it out if it's worth it to them.
good luck.

Subject: How to add public contacts to outlook address book
automatically?



Situation:
 Exchange 5.5 (one server).  Clients are all Win2kpro with Outlook 2000.
 User creates several public contact lists.  Gives "everyone" reviewer
 permissions.  Wants all users to automatically see those contact lists
 in the address book of outlook.  Right now, each user would have to
 "wrong click" on each contact list, then properties, then select
 the "outlook address book" tab, then check "show  this folder as
 an outlook address book".  My users can't do this-- sigh.

Is there a way to automate this?????
