  Question
  How do I share contacts through a network between computers?

I want to allow two computers to be able to use the same contacts file so
that when a change is made on one computer in Outlook it will be reflected in
the other Computer's Outlook. I'm tired of importing and exporting the
contacts file.

Operating System: WinXP
Outlook XP (2002)

  Dear Jason,

On this Microsft site is an article on various ways to share Outlook data:

In addition to Vince Avarellos tip, you will also find a list of
third-party sharing tools:
