TITLE   :XADM: Information Available in the Offline Address Book
PRODUCT :Microsoft Exchange
PROD/VER::5.5
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:kbusage

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server 
 - Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

Enhancements to the details file for the Microsoft Exchange Server Offline
Address Book (OAB) now allow much more information to be available to the
offline user. In previous versions of Exchange Server (4.0 and 5.0), the details
downloaded with the Offline Address Book were limited to the following: display
name, department, office, and phone number. These details are available on the
General tab. The business phone number is available on the Phone/Notes tab.

MORE INFORMATION
================

With Exchange Server version 5.5, more details are available. The details
available are:

On the General Tab
------------------

First name, Middle Initials, Last Name, Display name, Alias, Address, City,
State, Zip code, Country, Title, Company, Department, Office, Assistant, and
Phone.

Phone/Notes Tab
---------------

Business phone, Business phone 2, Fax, Assistant, Home phone, Home phone 2,
Mobile, Pager, Notes

E-mail Addresses Tab
--------------------

Email Addresses

When you download the OAB (on the Tools menu, Click Synchronize, and then click
Download Address Book), a couple of options are available. If this is not the
first time you are synchronizing the OAB, you can select the Download Changes
Since Last Synchronization checkbox. The other options are Information to
Download, Full details, and No Details. Full Details will allow you to see the
details of the addressee. No Details will allow you to resolve an address in the
OAB, but you will not be able to see the details file.

The OAB with details does not download the members of a Distribution List. Due to
the large number of users that can be added to a single Exchange Server
Distribution List, the members of a Distribution List are not downloaded to the
OAB.
