Was just curious if adding a few columns that show the Location, Phone Number, etc. in the main address book is acceptable? Seems like it would be a pretty quick and easy change and I can’t forsee any problems but wanted to throw it out here before I tried. Can anyone see any potential problems with this?

Bearing in mind that Lotus Support gets very unwilling to offer you support on a number of issues if you’ve messed with the design of the NAB, the answer is that you can modify the views if you’re careful. Overwhelmingly, functionality is based on the hidden views, the ones labeled “($Something)”. If you don’t mess with those, you’re usually OK.

And don’t forget - - when you modify the Directory be sure to document the changes, in the event that an upgrade wipes them out.
I’m just sayin’.
