Finding Contacts

When you view your Contacts database, you're first presented with a list of all contacts in your database. You have several options available for locating a particular individual or company.

Search

1. First, select the kind of contact you wish to search for (My Contacts, My Shared Contacts, Public Contacts, etc.) by selecting it in the Contact View menu. Search for any deleted contacts by selecting Deleted from the drop‑down menu.

   

2. Click the Search In drop-down on the right to select a specific field you'd like to search.

   

3. Next, type the keywords or search criteria you're looking for in the search field.

   

4. Press Enter, or click the magnifying glass icon (  ) to perform the search.
5. Click the gray X (  ) in the text field, or click the X in the blue Filter banner to clear the search and display all of your contacts.

   

Filter options

• Filter the list quickly by name by clicking a letter in the toolbar.
• Click All to reset your list to show all contacts.
• Clicking any of the column headings sorts your contact list by that column. So, if you want to view your contacts sorted by first name instead of last, just click the First Name heading.
• Move from one page of contacts to the next using the page number links at the bottom of the screen.

Alternatively, you can search for contacts through the Search Contacts tool in My Office.
