Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to change the forms where Outlook
displays user information from address book, that is, we would like to
display the following in the user property page :
"Business Mobile" instead of "Business 2" and "Private Mobile" instead of
Mobile.
Is this something the can be done easily or does it take some programming,
any hint that could put us in the right direction most welocome.

Thank you in advance for your help.
Luca

The Address Book window is not configurable. However, I suspect you're
speaking not of the address book interface, but the Contact form, which you
can customize. See if this helps:

Thanks Brian,
So I gather what we wanted to do is not possible, cause it is actually the
address-book (Ctrl+Shift+B) and field labels on the user property page that
we would like to modify.
Thanks for your reply.

As far as I can tell, that window cannot be configured.
