The Outlook Address Book needs to be added as a service to the Outlook profile.
If you .prf, add another service in Section 2. For example, Service4=Outlook
Address Book.
In Section 4, add [Service4] and don't put anything under it.
If you want to do it manually, go to Tools > Email Accounts and add an address
book. Under Additional Address Books is
the Outlook Address Book. Once that is added you should be able to check the
box for the Contacts folder but it should
do that automatically.

The Option is off, however it is even greyed out for an administrator. I went
through the policies again and can't find
anything clear that would have set this.

You may need to Right-Click contacts in the Folder List/Navigation Pane view,
select Properties, and enable the Show
this folder as an e-mail Address Book option on the Outlook Address Book tab.

Actually it doesn't show up under "Show names from the" field. I have been
trying to figure that one out to, I am
assuming it is a Policy problem but I haven't been able to find it.

Doesn't give them an option? You mean they are too blind to open the pulldown
for "Show names from the" field and
select Contacts? You can also set it so it defaults to Contacts, and not the
GAL.

I have about 4000 users and 4000 PAB's. It is easier to give them the PAB.
That and when your sending a email and you
go to the address book it doesn't give an option for Contacts which is
frustrating my users.

Why use a PAB at all in OL2k3? Just import them into Contacts.

Hi All,
Has anybody used Personal Address Books in Outlook 2003. I am trying to this
through a .prf file but it prompts me for
the location of the Address book. In previous versions you could set
PathToPersonalAddressBook= but it doesn't seem to
work in 2003. Anybody know how to set the path for the Personal Address Book
in the .prf?
Thanks,
Chris
