Outlook 2003 contacts (sync to) Access 2003

[Jake Aust]

I'm looking for a relatively easy and inexpensive way to
replicate the "NetFolders" of Outlook 2000 in 2003. Found
this on the micorosft website:

http://office.microsoft.com/assista...contacts+in+Outlook+2003&Scope=HP,HA,RC,FX,XT

If I use this and sync Outlook 2003 contacts with an Access
2003 database on my server, can I connect to this file with
other computers running Outlook 2003? Can I use this as a
"shared" system?

Thanks,

Jake Aust

What you're describing is basically an import/export scheme. There are ways
to use an Access database for sharing, but this isn't it. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/database.htm#tools instead
