Tip The script that runs when the user clicks Import Contacts requires an
Address Book Control component included with Outlook. By default, this
component is not installed during Outlook setup but is configured as
Installed On First Use. When you deploy Outlook, you might want to mark
the Address Book Control component as Run From My Computer, as
explained in Chapter 4 of the Microsoft Office 2003 Editions Resource Kit
(Microsoft Press, 2003) under “Customizing Office Features and Shortcuts,”
so that it will already be installed locally when users want to import
Outlook data into a SharePoint contacts list.
Table 40-2 lists the fields that Windows SharePoint Services can import from
either personal or Exchange contacts and the matching column names in a Share-
Point contacts lists. Any fields left blank in the Outlook contact or GAL entry are also
left blank in the corresponding item in the SharePoint list.
