Adding another's contacts to your drop down list

I've tested this method in Outlook 2000 and later, but not in Outlook 97:

1. Start with a profile that logs directly onto the other user's mailbox,
not your own.

2. On the Properties dialog for the other user's Contacts folder, make sure
that it's set to display in the Outlook Address Book and give it a display
name other than contacts, such as Joe's Contacts.

3. Close Outlook.

4. In Control Panel | Mail, edit the *same profile* to change the mailbox
from the other user's to your own. On the Advanced tab of the Exchange
Server service, add the other user's mailbox as a secondary mailbox.

5. Restart Outlook, and you should see the Joe's Contacts in your Outlook
Address Book as well as your own Contacts folder.

Outlook 97: Ok you know how you can go add another
person's mailbox to your outlook on the advanced tab? How
can you make their contacts show in your drop down list
when you are in a new message?

Thanks,
