Microsoft Windows Sharepoint Services Version 3. 0 Step by Step
By connecting a SharePoint Contacts list to Outlook 2007, you are creating an Outlook 2007 Contacts folder. You can then copy the contact information in your Outlook 2007 Contacts folder back into a SharePoint Contacts list. The new contacts within the Contacts folder are added to the SharePoint Contacts list the next time Outlook 2007 synchronizes with SharePoint, and you can then share the contact information with users who visit your SharePoint site. Any other users who also have connected the SharePoint Contacts list to their copy of Outlook 2007 will observe the new contacts within their Outlook contacts folder, when they next synchronize with SharePoint.
In this exercise, you will move contact information from your Outlook 2007 Address Book, to a Contacts list on a SharePoint site. Use the same technique to move calendar items from a SharePoint Calendar list to your Calendar folder, as well as to move task and event items into their respective Outlook 2007 folders.
| Troubleshooting | You cannot move a recurring series of events by using the steps detailed in this exercise. Instead, open the recurring series or the individual occurrence from a recurring series within Outlook 2007. Click the Office button, select Move, and then click either Other Folder or Copy To Folder. |
