< Go to tools select services and select addressing and change the setting as required. > Outlook XP does not have 'services' as a selection under 'tools.' You will also have to do the following On each outlook right click on the contacts select properties select Outlook address book and tick 'show this folder as an e-mail address book' The contacts view is a valid listing in the Address Book, it just has to be selected every time the user wants to view the names inside of it because the default view shows the Global Address List upon opening the Address Book. I'm assuming this has to be a registry hack at this point Thanks for all your help.

We're using Outlook 2002 and Exchange 2000 SP 3. Currently the default comes up showing the Global Access List, my users want their own to show up first.
