Shared Contact List

We currently use a shared folder to make contacts
available to everone in the company. Unfortunately, when
we give the contact a category, it is only a local user
category. How can we make the category list available to
everyone and modify this list for everyone to use.
 
The master Category list is part of each user's Windows registry. Users can see what categories other users have put on items, but don't know what categories the other users have on their master lists. The best solution in a public folder is to enforce category selection through a custom form. See http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/olcat.htm for more info.

Hi there,
I'm a few steps behind this discussion. I'd like to know
how you set up Outlook to access my company's contact
lists. If someone would pls guide me here it'll be most
appreciated.

Thanks,
Edwin
 
Where does your company store this information? What version of Outlook ?
