Missing Contacts

[Guest]

I have shared out a Mailbox and Contact folder so that an Administrative
Assistant can add/ remove/ delete contacts as a Publishing Author . Both are
using Outlook 2000. After I added his mailbox to her Outlook, she was unable
to see all of this contacts - just a few. And when she would add a contact
herself it would not show up in her list but whould in his. I exported the
contacts out to a PST file, deleted all of his old contacts and then
re-imported them. Now, none of them show up on her end, but again, they are
in his contacts folder. She can add contacts but as soon as she does, they
disapear from her view and they are available to him. Any help would be
appreciated.

Dallas,

Did you check to see if any of these contacts were ere marked private. I
would also check to make sure the permissions for the contacts folder are
setup correctly and this may be a long shot but check her views and see if
there are any filters on them.

Thank you for your response. From what I can tell, none of his contacts are
marked as private which also makes sense since she can't see any contacts
that's she has created either. The permissions are fine from what I can
tell. I did check her views and I did not see anything that would keep her
from seeing any of his contacts and even reset them back to the default.

I am having the exact same issue. Have you or anyone else found a solution to
this?
Thanks,

Thanks, I had the same problem and your suggestion solved it. When you open
the individual contact. There is a checkbox at the bottom right to mark the
contact as private. When I unchecked this box, the assistant could see the
contact.

Thanks again.

Hey there,
Thank you for the info.. Had that problem at a client site and it was
solved by unchecking the Private button...

Thank you for the help! !
