We're using office 2007 Enterprise. Our exchange server is 2003 sp2. One of
my users went into the public folders and right clicked on a group contact
list and chose "add to favorites"

When he goes back into his contacts, the group folder isn't listed as a
choice.

Any suggestions
 
Have him right-click the contacts folder in Public Folders\Favorites and choose Add to My Contacts (I think that's what it's called).

The options that 2007 gives me are:
Open, Open in a New Window, Send link to this folder, Move, Copy, Delete,
Rename, New Folder, Add to Favorites..., Mark all as Read, Change Sharing
Permissions and properties

We chose Add to Favorites.
 
Choose Add to Favorites. Then repeat for the copy that you just put under the Favorites hierarchy.

I did the "add to favorites" which normally adds the contact list in the
"other contacts" folder. On this particular one it's not showing up there,
nor is it under favorite folders at the top of mail. I don't see a favorites
folder per se on my folder view of outlook.
 
Of course, it's not under the favorites folders at the top of Mail. Those are mail folders, not contacts folders.

If you display the Folder List navigation pane, you should see two branches under the Public Folders hierarchy -- All Folders and Favorites. It is the copy under Favorites that should have, on its right-click menu, a command to add the folder to the navigation pane, labeled Add to My Contacts IIRC.

When I right click on the shortcut under favorite folders as you suggest, I
get Open, open in new window, send link to this folder, move "", copy "",
delete "", rename "", new folder, mark all as read, change sharing
permissions and properties.

No add to favorites.
 
Any new suggestions/ideas?

Thanks
