Categories not showing for all to see

[tjsmags]

Our school uses MS Outlook 2003. We also use the MS Exchange Server.

I set up a public folder called RE STUDENTS that has all the religious
education student contacts. I also added in CATEGORIES listing all the
different teachers for these students.

I just added the first contact, tagged it with 2 different categories (one,
giving class time for religious ed; two, giving teacher's name for this
classtime). When another staff tried adding a contact she did NOT see all
the classtimes I added and teachers I added under CATEGORIES. She only saw
the TWO categories that I used to tag the first contact I added.

How come she cannot see all the CATEGORIES I added? I want HER to input all
the names and tag them (i.e. categorize them) appropriately with the
classtimes and teachers that I set up, yet she cannot see them to put a
checkmark by them!!??

Help!

Each user has their own Master Category List. They can see the details of
items which other people Categorized, but when they click to select a
Category, they will see their own Master Category list, not yours.

If all the users are using OL03, you might export your categories from the
registry and import that file on the users' systems. Note, that will
overwrite their own categories.

Here's explained where you may find the categories in the registry:
