Linking contacts
I have copies of contacts in different folders. Is there any way to link the
original and the copy so that a change made to one will automatically be made to the copy? Thanx

Linking contacts
There's nothing built into Outlook to do that; perhaps there may be a 3rd
party add-in that would. I would just open the edited contact, click File | Copy to Folder, choose the folder where the copy is, and click OK. It will say there is already a contact with that e-mail address in that folder and ask what you want to do -- just merge them. -- Jocelyn Fiorello MVP - Outlook *** Messages sent to my e-mail address will NOT be answered -- please reply only to the newsgroup to preserve the message thread. *** "Triad1" wrote: I have copies of contacts in different folders.

Thanx,Jocelyn -- I hope that Microsoft deals with this in upcoming versions
-- it's really a pain to have to edit each copy manually.

I too have found this to be a hassle.
