Hi all,

I wonder if someone knows how I can share a contact group which I have created in Outlook 2007.. I have managed to send it to someone else but then it is just attached and I cannpt work out how to pursuade it to be saved as a contact group on the other PC.

This is just to save us both constantly having to update the same contact list.

Cheers

Jas

If I knew what that meant I would be able to be more helpful.. We use Outlook to download from Googlemail basically and it is on our laptops... Much more than that I am not 100% sure...

Anyone got any ideas?

Oh, and why the hell does outlook allow you to delete an entire group contact without asking you to confirm when every other f***ng thing I want it to do it asks me to sign in blood that I wish to proceed..........

Import contact list to 'communal' Google account.

Both sync using exchange to Google?

Continue using individual Google email account as Imap on same Outlook?

I dunno, someone else can probably work round the intricacies.

Drag the Distribution List attachment over the "contacts" tab on the left hand menu.

Ah, that might be the answer, I opened it and was trying to get it to save.

I will give that a go in a minute, cheers.
