Have you thought of upgrading to Outlook? Then you could create a separate .pst file with just a folder for Contacts in it. You store the .pst file on a network drive or separate folder on the C: drive so you know where it is to back it up. You can easily import you Addresses from Outlook Express to Outlook. This way multiple users on the same pc will be able to view the same contacts.
