There was a remedy for this that worked in older version - so try it for
2007 as it may work. Make the setting change twice in a row. I mean the
setting you described "I go to the View menu, Expand/Collapse
Groups" Do it twice. It worked in 2002. I haven't heard of it still being a
problem in 2007 buy no strange behaviour surprises me.

All of my Contacts are in and "Arranged By" Categories. I upgraded from
Office 2003 to 2007 last week and since then I can't get the Categories to
permanently stay Collapsed. If I go to the View menu, Expand/Collapse
Groups, it will Collapse the Categories, but as soon as I go back to my
Mail
folder and return to Contacts, the Categories are again Expanded. Anyone
have a fix for this?

Thanks.
