I am using Outlook 2007 on XPSP2.
Is it possible to copy or transfer a contact from one contact list to another, and if so, how? I have two separate contact lists. -- Thanks, Bob |

When I open the address book and attempt that method, the option to "Copy to
Folder" is not there. In fact all options on the Edit menu are grayed out. "Gordon" wrote in message ... "BBran" wrote in message ... I am using Outlook 2007 on XPSP2.

Actually Outlook does have an address book because I open it all the time.
I see the method and options you described are available in the contacts folder. Thanks. "Gordon" wrote in message ... "BBran" wrote in message ... When I open the address book Outlook doesn't use an addressbook - are you opening the CONTACTS folder? |

Details, details. Guess I'm not too concerned about what the address book I
see actually represents. I see an address book so that is what I call it. I don't have contacts w/o e-mail I only use Outlook for e-mail. "Gordon" wrote in message ... "BBran" wrote in message ...

it's often easier and faster to grab and drag items between folders. So if
you have more than 1 Contacts folder, select and then grab and drag the ones you want to move. This also works when dragging from one Group to another (when in a grouped view such as By Category).

Thanks, I will try to remember that. What this stemmed from is needing to
add a new contact but not knowing how to specify what contact folder to put it in. Guess I have to go to the folder I want it in rather than using the "address book".

It's not the name of my contacts folder or anything, it is a menu that say "Outlook Address Book". I don't mean to beat a dead horse but it's there. However, address book and contacts are not always one in the same FYI. |
