Yes, that is exactly what I would like. I see there being two approaches to
this.

1. Exchange connects to SQL and shows the table/view as part of the Global
Address Book
2. Outlook has another address book provider setup that connects directly to
SQL.

Option two is less convenient as it requires setup/configuration on each
client machine.
