heres the setup...
we have multiple users using outlook.
we also have a server fo storing all our data that everyone can access.

what i need to know how to do is set up a common contacts folder that everyone can use and add contacts to.
i have tried importing the contacts into everyones outlook from one common .pst, but if anyone adds a contact, it doesnt show up for anyone else.
is there a way around this, microsoft excange is out of the question. the company doesn not want to use it.

thanks in advance

No easy way of doing this without Exchange Server.

you could try sharing a .pab (personal address book) but I have never tried that. if you were really desprate you could write a web page that had all the information and use "mailto" links but that would be pretty kludgy.

You could use a personal address book I think and accomplish what you want. You'd have to store it on the server then add it to everyone's email profile. I've n ever done this but in theory it SHOULD work unless outlook freaks out about multiple users opening the same address book at the same time.
