'Sharing' address book (properties) in public folder-not active

When I 'right-click' onto an address book (Outlook 2003), located in my
public folders on server (small business server 2003), the 'sharing' is not
activated. Why? Does it have something to do with permissions etc. and if so
how can I resolve this?

Permissions for public folders are handled in the Properties dialog for =
the folder, not through the address book.=20

I've click onto "All Public Folders" and selected "Properties". My company
address book is located under this folder.

I'm presented with 2 tabs 'General' & 'Summary'. Summary tab contains the
permissions area but I can't selected anything in this area. Why?
