Open GAL, select all, right click, add to contacts? -----Original Message----- From: Troy Meyer [mailto:troy.me...@monacocoach.com] Sent: Friday, February 20, 2009 4:31 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Copy GAL to outlook contact folder
Did I miss something here, doesn't Outlook automatically show your Exchange server address lists? You can have only one default GAL per person, but you can have other address lists that are published to Outlook and kept up to date automatically. I can see perhaps copying to local contacts for offline usage, but even then is it really worth the effort when you have Outlook Anywhere (RPC via HTTPS) ? Why would a contact list sync only to your smartphones and not Outlook? -troy -----Original Message----- From: Gene Giannamore [mailto:gene.giannam...@abideinternational.com] Sent: Friday, February 20, 2009 2:22 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Copy GAL to outlook contact folder Is there a way (tool, script, util, program, etc.) that will allow someone to copy the GAL to the outlook contact folder? I am hoping to find a way to update the outlook contact folder with the GAL for our smart phones. Right now, since most of our users cannot do this themselves, I have to access each user's outlook and add the new GAL entry to their outlook contact folder. Our smart phones (windows mobile, and iphones) sync with our exchange server. And everyone loves the up to date contacts and the contacts are there for when they receive or make a call. I call it mandatory convenience, and I am responsible for making it all work, all the time, especially for the new people. Gene Giannamore Abide International Inc.
