Default Outlook 2003 Find in Public Folder Contacts

We have Outlook 2003 and a Exchange 2003 with a Contact Public Folder.

Many if not all users can not use the "Find" on that "Favorite" folder.

Advance Find will return the correct results - but using the Look For:
from the Find button returns nothing.

It is a "spreading" flaw. For example, as someone "lost" that functionality
(i.e. It used to work for everyone), that functionality began to spread to
all users.

Have anyone else had that issue. I have one beta user on 2007 that has no
problem - but everyone else is using 2003.

Thanks

does it happen after the beta user searches the folder?

I don't think so. But everyone who attempts to use the quick find can't. The
207 beta can.

Advance find works for all.
