There are no "contacts files", per se, in Outlook. All your mail, calendar
event, contacts, etc. are kept in the same file. If you want to share some,
it's possible by creating a PST containing a contacts folder on a network
share, but you can't both access it simultaneously.

You need back-end software like ShareO (although that's not the only one
available). http://shareo.4team.biz/
