Disappearing Contacts

Hi, one of our staff is using Outlook 2003 with a contact list which is
stored on the exchange server.
Another staff member including myself is trying to add contacts to this list
but when we click
Action > Add New Contact. Enter the contacts details and click save and
close it will appear for a second or two and then disappear. It cannot be
found in a search either.

Thanks for your help
Cheers,
Tayven.
 
Is this contact list in a mailbox or a public folder?

I don't see any Action | Add New Contact command when I'm looking at the list of contacts in a public folder. Where are you seeing that command?

There is an "Actions" Menu in Outlook 2003. One of the sub menus is "New
Contact". You could also press "Ctrl N" or "right click New Contact".
Theres no need to get entirely specific on what I have written you know what
I mean. Please have a go at answering my question.
 
Again, I don't see that when I'm looking at a public contacts folder. Ctrl+N, yes, but not Actions | New Contact. That's why I'm trying to pin down the exact steps you're following.
