This article was previously published under Q146566 SUMMARY
The Microsoft Exchange Offline Address Book (.OAB) does not allow the off-
line user to view all of the details that are available online.
MORE INFORMATION
When you download the OAB (choose Synchronize on the Tools menu), the
default option is Download Off-line Address Book. This option will only
show the Display name, Department, Office, and Phone number under the
General properties tab. (The OAB also includes the Business phone from the
Phone/Notes tab.)
The second option available when you download the OAB is Download Offline
Address Book Without Detail Information. This option downloads the OAB
without details and only provides the Display name.
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 Microsoft
Exchange Distribution List (5,000 members), the member list of a
Distribution List is not downloaded to the OAB.
