Default Contact folder missing, but not all the time

You have still failed to tell us which Navigation Pane view in Outlook you
are using to examine your folders. Start by using the "Folder List" view so
you can examine your entire folder hierarchy. I'll bet that if you expand
every folder, you will eventually see these subfolders you created.

Brian, you make valid point, my mistake. Thanks.

Where are they located? That is part of the problem, I can't find them
except when I create a new message and click on the "TO:" box and then in
the
pull down menu the contact folders is listed, HOWEVER on the main Outlook
screen under contacts some of these folders are NOT listed.

Are they in the same data store as your default Contacts folder or are
they
in a different one? I am not sure what you mean by "Same data store".
The
contact folders were created by me by creating 'new folder' from within my
main "contacts" folder.

Which version of Outlook? 2007

Is your data store and Exchange mailbox or a PST? It is a PST file.

I hope this helps. The data is still there, because again if I go to
create
a new message, click on the "TO:" box to select addresses, in the pull
down
menu for "Contacts" ALL the contact folders show up. If I select an
address
within one of these folders that is missing on the main Contacts screen,
and
right click on it and click no properties, all the data in the record is
there.

Thanks again, JWB

Is your data store and Exchange mailbox or a PST? This is information
you
should always supply when asking a question.

All of the sudden, this and 1 or 2 others has disappeared.....
however if I create a new message and click on "TO:" in the drop down
window of available contact folders to look for, these folders are
there AND USABLE.

That means that your contacts folders are enabled as address books but
that
has nothing to do with Navigation Pane views. Which Navigation Pane view
are you using? Where do you think they should show and don't?
