Find a contact by the Organization value

[Guest]

Can I make a search by the Organization value using the "find a contact" box ?
We've Outlook 2003 but we only can find contacts typing a Name or a partial
name, but we want to find all the contacts with the same Organization value.
Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

It's a function that partly works. Type a company name and hit enter. What
I tend to find is that some Contacts from that Company will show up in the
dialogue box - BUT rarely all of them. I cannot work out which ones show and
which don't.

I counsel my clients to only trust the Lookup Window on First and Last name
fields.

I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

Hi Judy. We've found that we can find a contact typing the organization name
if this name is part of the email address, so i think that the email address
is another field used in the search.

"It's a function that partly works" .... Uhmmm, I think that I can't say
that to my boss (it's a big, big man)
