I have a split Windows / Mac environment and a user who uses the "Custom 1" field in Outlook for Mac contacts. This works fine for her assistants that are on Mac as they can all see and sync the contents of this field. However her another user that needs to view her contacts on Windows can't view this field it doesn't show up as an option.
Exporting a sample contact as a vcd and then opening with textedit I can see the contents of the custom field is there. Specifically it says "X-custom;charset=utf-8;type=1:" followed by the contents of the field. Each successive field increments the type so "Custom 2" is labeled as "X-custom;charset=utf-8;type=2:"
Unfortunately even though the data is there in the vcf importing into Outlook for Windows or browsing her delegate contacts from Outlook for Windows doesn't work.
Does anyone have a creative idea as to how I can view this field from a Windows box? I investigated creating a custom form for contacts in the developer tab but couldn't make it work.
Thanks
