More updates...

After it takes 4 minutes to open the Contacts folder the first time, it
takes less than a second to open each subsequent time (switching back
and
forth between Inbox, Contacts, etc.).

However, I arranged by Category and Company just to test what I saw
posted
in other messages, and when I tried to arrange by Address Cards, it
took
forever to complete the process.

What is the size of your Contacts Folder now?
Are you using Exchange Server or a local data store?

My Contacts folder takes over 4 minutes to open. It could be a
result
of
a
ill-advised attempt to import an Excel spreadsheet of contacts that
resulted
in over 15,000 entries in Outlook Contacts (I apparently didn't map
properly). I deleted all of them (very painful task) but there
appears
to
be
a residual effect.

My Inbox, Calendar and other folders take less than a second to
open.

Are there any hidden files or temp folders or some other information
that
Contacts must still look through before it opens (15,000+ of them)?

Thanks
