Hi, i apologies in advance if this has ben answered before or if i am posting it in a wrong place, however i wasn't able to find a simple answer so far.
Is it possible to add a contact into global address list directly from an outlook client?
or
What would be the best practice to share contacts between few outlook clients, with ability to use a search function?

Simple answer: No.
The GAL is based off the Active Directory, and as such an Outlook Client cannot add to it.
What you could do is make a contact folder in the Public Folder store, grant rights, and allow users to create contacts there. If you check the properties, there should be a tick allowing you to use it as an address book.
Under the properties of the Exchange server there should also be a means in which you can set name resolving orders, and thus move in the public contact folder to also be used for name resolution.

Fair enough.. Thank you for your answer.. That makes perfect sense... Let me ask this... Is there any other species of land dwelling frog or toad that would work well in an enclosure with Red Eyes ? OR, is there any other tree frog that would work well with darts ?
