Cool Tip of the Day 49: Finding/Adding Someone

With Microsoft® Office Communicator Mobile 2007 R2, you can search for someone by e-mail name, and then initiate a call, send an instant message, view the user’s Contact Card, send an e-mail, or add the contact to your Contact List.

To search for someone

In the Contact List, click Menu > Find/Add Someone. Type the person’s e-mail address in the Find by e-mail address box, and then click Find. Under Search Results, click the name of the person you want to contact or add to your Contact List, and then do one of the following.

       To add a contact, click Menu > Add Contact, select the group where you want to add the contact, and then click OK.

To call the contact, send an instant message or an e-mail, click Select and then click an option on the Contact Card.

I'm having some problems with another way to add contacts. If i right click a contact in MOC there is a feature called "Add to Outlook".

Does anyone know where i can find some documentation or a description of this feature? i can't find it anywhere.

It is acting a bit strange. Sometimes when i right click a contact the feature i dimmed so i cannot select it and sometimes i can select the feature. I think it depends on whether the contact is already in my contacts in Outlook or not. This is not constant.

Another thing is that in a evironment with OCS R2, Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2007 the feature works fine.

In another environment with OCS R2, Exchange 2007 and Outlook 2003 the feature doesn't work.

Please help...
