Public Folder Contact List - Outlook 2003

[Nadihaha]

Hi,

It may be a little past what Outlook can do, but I thought it was worth
asking.

We currently have a Public Folder contact list that Admin staff have access
to change and other staff only have access to read. Unfortunatley this leads
to them using their private contacts instead of the public ones.

I would like to set up outlook so that it has a newe contacts form (which I
think I can do) with a button that when pressed will send the contact to
admin to put into the folder. Can this be done or am I too optimistic?

Thanks

What about giving them access to make new Contacts but not edit old ones????

Why don't you let them edit? I have seen sales teams do amazing things in
Contacts when they CAN edit. eg notes of conversation, hyperlinks to the
latest quotation sent to the client.

Its doable, but you need to use code to do it.

Why not give the staff create permission but allow them to only edit or
delete their own items?
