Contact Folders in Outlook 2002

[SD 22 1966]

Is documentation available that describes FULLY how to manage and maintain
Contact folders and subfolders?

I have contact folders that appear when I open a new message, click "To,"
and open the list of folders under "Show Names From the:" but do NOT show up
in the Inbox Folder List. How does this happen? Is there a way for me to
remove these Contact folders from my system?

Thanks

Hi

b.) Delete the Outlook Addressbook and add it after a restart of Outlook
again. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q319901

The titel of the website is different to your problem, but the solution is
the same. ;-)

After you add the Adressbook again you can select/add the different contact
folders as "Outlook Addressbook" but all not available contact folders were
deleted in the list of Addressbooks in the "To" field.

Maybe it helps.

Are you saying that when I delete the Outlook Address Book, this will have no
effect on the contact folders themselves? That is, no contact folders will be
deleted?

Also, is there a way to backup and restore individual contact folders?

Thanks

Correct. The Outlook Address Book is just a service that presents a view of
the contacts folders.

Sure. Copy them to separate PSTs.
