two contacts

[Kathy]

I have two contact files. When I look in the contacts when
creating a new message the first one is empty. The second
one is were my contacts are. How can I change the default
to be the second contacts. I am using Windows XP and
attempted to look for the contacts folder in search to
delete the empty one but I am not seeing either of them
during the search.

I am using Outlook 2002 on Windows XP. When I go to "new"
to create a new email. Then I look at my contacts they are
empty. I have to go over and change the contacts file to
the second contacts file that I see and I get my contacts
to appear. The second contacts folder appeared because the
user of the system attempted to move the contacts folder
from one computer to another and somehow ended up with two
contacts. The default the Outlook opens up to is empty the
send contacts is the correct one.

Go to Tools > E-mail accounts > View or change existing directories or
address books > Outlook Address Book > Change.
Remove the duplicate listing there.
