Adding Categories in Shared Contact list--don't show for others

[Guest]

In our office we have a shared Contacts list in Public folders in Outlook
2000. I want to add some categories, but when I tried--only I could see the
new categories. If I check some of the new categories in an entry, everyone
can see them. I created a new entry and didn't check any new categories--no
one can see them. What am I doing wrong? All staff needs to be able to edit
any entries they made to the shared Contacts. Thanks!

The master category list is kept in each user's registry. Entries from that
list are visible to others who access the item but unless the category is in
the master list it's a one-off category for them. See
