Just one thing I forgot to mention.. I am seraching a folder hierarchy in a
Public Folder. The option "Search Subfolders" is greyed out in "Select
Folders" window. Therefore I can not select subfolders? Backend is Exchange
2003 Standard Edition.

Thanx

Have you tried using the Contacts Lookup window instead?? It's a white box
in the toolbar. Just type the person's name (first or last) or company and
hit Enter.

Hi Judy,
Yes, It did not work for me - it will nor drill down a folder hierarchy.
What I did was to install LookOut add-in and it worked like a charm!
