There are six folders in the contacts section. The first folder is the
primary use folder called 'contacts with categories' which I just added to
Outlook and will use as my main contact list. I changed all settings so this
appears first and if I send a message and click on the To button, it is
indeed this folder that appears. The second one listed is the old contacts
folder named contacts to which the contact gets added if I right click on the
sender. This is the problem I am trying to resolve. The third and fourth
folder are named contacts and are empty. The fifth is labeled business
contacts and is empty. The sixth is another empty contacts folder which I
believe is tied to a business program that I do not use as of yet.

Please explain where these "primary" and "secondary" contacts lists are located in your Outlook folder hierarchy.

When I add sender to my contacts by right clicking on email address, it posts
to a secondary contacts list, not my primary contacts. How do I get it to
point to the correct contact data base. I posted this message previously but
could not find it so apologize for reposting.
