Hi David,
To reach your aim, you may have to create a standard address book on an
Outlook client, and share the Personal Address Book by copying the PAB file
to a public folder. Then the others can get it and import it into their own
address book.
For more information, refer to the article below:

Computer

Have a nice day!
Thanks & Regards

|>Based on my knowledge, you are unable to edit the Global

|by design.
