Contacts

Hi,
In Contacts, is it possible to create a outside of my own contacts group (that has all personal and work contacts) a new contacts "Group" that would be populated with distribution lists and then allow colleagues to be able to access that group only and not have access to my original contacts group that contains my personal and work contacts?.

Regards,
Derek

RE: Contacts

Hello Derek,

Hope you enjoyed your Microsoft Outlook Advanced course with Best STL.

Thank you for your question regarding shared contact groups.

In the Contacts section on the Home ribbon, select the New Contact Group on the left-hand side and create a group, adding whatever contacts you wish into this group. You then have to share this group with whomever you choose allocating the permission levels accordingly.

Give this a try.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Rodney
