entourage address book categories

[BarbaraL]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)

My address book is organized by Categories, i.e. Business, Family, etc, so the names are color coded by each category. I somehow screwed something up and now the appear to be jumbled in two categories: Business and Family. I cannot figure out how to get them organized back in the appropriate Category. They remain the same "color" as say the Business category but they are not showing up when I click on the Business category. I only see them when I look at the whole Address Book.

Losing my mind. Help!!!!!

It sounds like you accidentally assigned a second category to your contacts.
It should still sort by either category. Open a contact and check Assign
categories and see what's checked. Off hand I don't think there is a mass
removal of a category.
