Contacts in a public folder synching with a user's contacts

[WordWizard2911]

We want to create a public folder that will house the contacts for a
marketing list. We want the firm to participate by having each person move
contacts to the public folder.
Are sticking points are: What if two people have the same contact how do we
reconcile that?
When we do have just one unique contact for each person in the public
folder, is there a way to synch it back to the original owner's contact so
they stay current? We don't want them to have to update twice.

I think it's better to create a list of all the contacts in excel. Eac
employee gets an excelsheet (person name - adresses as example for exce
file name) that you prepared so they just need to push a button to le
excel collect all the adresses of their default adressbook (probabl
they get a security warning that excel wants to use info from outlook)


They send you the file and you merge all those files (put them in on
directory ex. charlize - adresses.xls). Then check on full contact
name, name and surname and streetname and streetnumber after all exce
files are merged (you did use sorting to ease viewing - for a look at
glance to see that you need to refine stuff).

Just and idea off course.
