Adding contacts on Exchange
I have a client using Microsoft Exchange 2003. Some of the users are still using Office 2000. When I try and allow the "local" contacts be visible in the address book, the option to "show this folder" is grayed out.
How can I get the user's contacts to be available when sending an email?
Is there a setting on Exchange I am overlooking to allow this?

Adriaan

Go in to Control Panel, Mail and ensure that the Outlook Address Book service is installed. If it is not, choose Add and select Outlook Address Book. Once installed, restart Outlook.

Anyways, try the following on the Outlook 2000 or 2003 clients.
1. Go to Tools->Address Book
2. On the Address Book screen, go to Tools->Options
3. On the Addressing tab, select "Contacts" under "Show this address list first" and "Keep personal addresses in".
4. Press OK. and close Address Book screen.
5. Create new email and try accessing Contacts.
