Anyone know how to view a Shared User's contacts in the address book
for Outlook 2007. I had a procedure that would work for Outlook 2003
that would do this, but it will not work in 2007. Here is the 2003
procedure I used to use:

"Sue Mosher

The process of adding another user's Contacts folder to your own
address book display is somewhat involved. You will need to be able to
create -- at least temporarily -- an Outlook profile that opens
another user's mailbox as the primary mailbox. Proceed with these
steps while logged in under your own Windows account, not the other
user's:

1. Create an Outlook profile that connects directly to the other
user's mailbox, not your own. If you are using Outlook 2003, do not
select the option to use Cached Exchange mode. Start Outlook with that
profile.

2. On the Properties dialog for the other user's Contacts folder, make
sure that it's set to display in the Outlook Address Book and give it
a display name other than contacts, such as Joe's Contacts.

3. Close Outlook.

4. In Control Panel | Mail, edit the *same profile* (i.e. the one from
Step 1) to change the mailbox from the other user's to your own.

5. Still working with the same profile, on the Advanced tab of the
Exchange Server service, add the other user's mailbox as a secondary
mailbox.

6. Restart Outlook, and you should see the Joe's Contacts in your
Outlook Address Book as well as your own Contacts folder. "

Any help is greatly appreciated!!
