Good Contacts vs Treo Contacts?

[misscrf]

My treo is through my work, so the Outlook contacts gives me the company contacts, plus all my contacts in my own addressbook in Outlook.

On my treo, they are all there in the Good contacts. Problem is that if I go directly to SMS, MMS, a picture or video to send , or attach to a contact, I have no contacts listed. It is as if there are two contact programs on my Treo and they don't sync. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Open Outlook on your computer, click on the Address Book and ensure that the GLOBAL ADDERESS LIST is
displayed. While pressing control, select the people you want to sync to your contacts
remember to let go of CTRL while scrolling and press again before clicking the
contact to select, after selecting all the contacts you want to sync, right click on one of the highlighted
contacts you selected and then click on ADD TO CONTACT. Now click on the drop down menu
"SHOW NAMES FROM THE:" and change that to CONTACT under OUTLOOK ADDRESS BOOK. A list of people
you selected should populate in the window below.
Syncing:
Connect your Treo to your computer and let active sync run. After sycning open your contacts, remember this is not GoodLink Contacts this is poutlook contacts. Open CONTACTS on your Treo you will then see a list of people you selected to be in your contacts list. You will be able to utilize this list sending emails, sms, mms, picture mail etc.
This is the method I am using because GoodLink should be called GoodStink.
Hope this helps.
