Has anyone out there done work customising Microsoft Outlook to provide a multi-user platform for managing contacts - say in an organisation with 450 staff operating on a Windows NT platform, and with a potential contacts number of three to five thousand.

Features sought are better mail merge handling, protocols for updating contact details, managing "past contacts" etc etc

We have a view on the functionality desirable, but would welcome the opportunity to discuss this with someone who has already been down the path.

I'd appreciate any pointers / contacts.

Keep up the good work, Free Pint

Nick
