Unable to select a default contact folder
I have 2 contacts folders (local disk and Hotmail account). When I try to
select a contacts folder for my address book both my default folder and hotlook folder are assigned. When I try to deselect any of these folders the check mark is "grayed out" (on both). Any help? -- JimD

Unable to select a default contact folder
when I right click on contact folder properties, there is an option to select
the folder for the address book. However properties for both of my contact folders are grayed out not allowing me to select or deselect the folder in the address book. I may understand that my defauly contacts folder is grayed-out, but why is my other folder also grayed-out?. As a result both of my contact folder appear within my address book. -- JimD "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Select where? -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "JimD" wrote in message ...

Unable to select a default contact folder
I'm sorry, but I don't understand why that's a problem.
If you want to change the default contacts list in the address book, open the address book, then choose Tools | Options in it. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "JimD" wrote in message ... when I right click on contact folder properties, there is an option to select the folder for the address book.
