I know how to create a hyperlink in a Word doc that opens up a specific
Outlook contact. Example: <Outlook:Contacts/~Itemname>

Is there a way to open a specific contact in someone else's mailbox if I
have access to that user's mailbox?

Thanks
 
Only if that mailbox is visible in your folder list, in which case, your link would need to include the full path through the folder list.

Yes, the mailbox is visible in the folder list. Could you give me an example
of how I would put the entire path?

Thanks
 
Just read it off the FolderPath property of the desired folder or construct it from each folder in the hiearchy: Mailbox - The Name\Contacts\~Someone. You will need to replace spaces with %20 as you would in any HTML hyperlink.
