Add Outlook Contacts Automatically?

[tb913]

Does anybody know how to set up Outlook so that when you reply to a message, it automatically adds them to contacts? Thanks

When in Outlook 2000 you would go to Tools, Options, then to email options which should be at the top and then at the bottom of that window there is a check box that you would check to add contacts that you reply to to your contacts folder or to whatever folder you choose.

Which version of Outlook?

If I remember correctly, in 98 you CAN set it up to automatically put anyone you reply to in your Contacts, but in 2k you can NOT since they made the Contacts filing more complicated.

irishmn322,

I think you're thinking 98... I have 2k and that's where I recall it being but it isn't, hence my prior posting.

Of course, it MIGHT be different if you're not running through Exchange Server...

I run office 2000 here at work and at home. It is there in both if you are using it as a standalone client. I haven't set it up to work on an exchange server so I wouldn't know.
And it had been too long since I have used Outlook 98. But with 2000 I am certain.

irishmn322,

Then it has to be the Exchange Server here that's removed that, or maybe the IT folks did it. I'll check at home where I'm running it standalone and see. I *knew* I'd seen it and was feeling quite "twilight zoned" when I couldn't find it here!
