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.

As with previous versions, highlight the contact, do Edit-Copy to
Folder.....

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.

Outlook doesn't use an addressbook - are you opening the CONTACTS folder?

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.

No it doesn't - that's a common misconception. What you /think/ is the
addressbook is purely a view of your Contacts folder that is used to insert
email addresses into emails. If you have contacts that have no email
address, then they do NOT appear in the "addressbook" view...
