Posted: Fri Oct 08, 2004 1:36 am    Post subject: changing GAL view fields in Outlook Reply with quote

I have Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2003 clients. I want to
add and remove some of the default fields when opening
the GAL in Outlook > (tools/ Address Book). The default
fields are: Name; Business Phone; Title; Company; Alias;
E-mail type; E-mail Address. I want to add Home Phone
and Mobile phone (fields that are already in AD) to this
list and I want to remove the fields: E-mail Type and E-
mail Address. I know I can view it if I double click on
the person but I want to be able to view all at once
instead of wasting time opening each one.

TIA

Go to Exchange System Manager, Recipients, Details Templates, choose your
language, and open the User object, go to the templates tab and you can
design and test the form. It is possible to add fields in, but by default
Exchange will only see a subset of the ones in AD. I am not sure if Home
Phone and Mobile are listed, but there is a good chance.

Actually, this is more than I wanted to do. I don't want
to change the default fields, I want to change the way
clients view the address book when they open it in
Outlook. When users open tolls then Address Book in
outlook I want them to be able to VIEW the phone numbers
for everyone instead of having to open the properties of
each person. I need to change the fields when first
opening the address book, not actually in the properties
of the people. Thanks for the info on how to change the
default fields though, MS support couldn't even tell me
how to do that!

This does not seem to be possible. Others have asked in groups and the
consensus is that it is not customisable.

Eg
