Resource Pool

[Bob]

Trying to formulate a Resouce pool for my company and need some guidence.
Is there a program out there that I can use on a server that will link MS
Project Std and be a Resource pool for projects as well as to be used as a
general Contact database????

Bob:

Project, itself, can talk to any MAPI compliant application like Outlook,
Lotus Notes, Exchange, etc to import resources.

Bob:

Project will talk to your Outlook instance for the purposes of adding
resources to a project file. The resources that you create this way can be
used in a stand-alone project file, in a project file as a shared resource
pool, or imported to Project Server's enterprise resource pool if you use
Project Professional.

Generally, companies who use Outlook also use Exchange. The shared contact
functionality you're looking for comes with Exchange Server.
