Office Communicator Tabs with MS OCS 2007

These files will allow Office Communicator users to Google Map their Domain Contacts. This does not work with External Contacts.

For more information on enabling Tabs in Office Communcator go to - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=f1d1a947-6eff-4ac4-8878-f0a77894ac99&DisplayLang=en

Registry Example - ocstabs.txt

XML Example - ocsxml.txt

****************************************************************************************************************

The asp pages need to run under the credentials of a domain account that has the rights to search Active Directory. In IIS set the anonymous access to use an account that has Read Only Access to Active Directory. The default IUSR machine account will not work.

ocsmap.txt
mapldap.txt
map.txt

Right click the 3 text files above and save as *.asp

Modify lcsmap.asp and replace "contoso.com" with the correct information


Modify map.asp and replace "YOURGOOGLEMAPAPIKEY" with your Google Map API Key -

****************************************************************************************************************
These files are for situations where the tab function does not work - i.e. external contacts
or you dial a telephone number
