Outlook 2007 Can't add new category to share contact??

[Guest]

Hi,

I recently update Outlook 2003 to Outlook 2007. After this update, I can't
add new category to share contact of another mailbox. The button are in grey
(disabled).
But when I was in Outlook 2003, I was able to do it. The permission didn't
change!!

All the mailbox are on Exchange 2003 and everything was working well on the
previous version of Outlook. Is there something that prevent me to do this??

Thanks for your help

I have the same issue with shared mailboxes. I found the the Master
Category List is stored in under the Calendar Folder. It appears that
you need to have Owner permissions for the calendar of the mailbox you
are trying to create categories on. Once I changed this permission I
was able to add new categories.

Hi Brian,

Thanks a lot for the solution. I give the owner permission on the calendar
and after that, I was able to create or delete categories on Shared Contacts.

Thanks again for taking time to wrote the solution
