Need to view Outlook Contact Group that a contact is part of

Hey All,

I am looking for a good solution to allow a user to view the Outlook Contact Group (Not Distribution Group) that a contact is part of.

The right-click + contact properties only shows the distribution groups in Exchange.

A hover-over "Mailtip" style pop-up would be ideal.

Any thoughts? Maybe with VB?

Thanks!

Hi,

When we hover over a contact in Outlook, it pops out the contact group information that the contact belongs to. Is this what you want to achieve? If this is the case, I'm afraid there is no such build-in feature in Outlook.

I'd recommend you post your question in one of the following two forums to check if this is possible via coding:

https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/scriptcenter/en-US/home?forum=ITCG

https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/home?forum=outlookdev

The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
