I moved my contacts into the contacts folders of the address book but it
created 2 CONTACTS FOLDERS the default CONTACTS is empty and when I try to open the address book I get "The address list could not be displayed. The Contacts folder associated with this address list could not be opened.....". Then from the dropdown I select the next Contacts folder and I get my addres list. How can I switch the default folder or can I eliminate the first Contact folder (empty one) and leave only one in it? |

Hi Ivan,
under "Tools/Addressbook/Tools/Options" here you can change the default addressbook. Change the setting for "Show this addressbook first" -- Oliver Vukovics Share Outlook without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Share your contacts, calendars or e-mails http://www.publicshareware.com "Ivan" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...

Hi Russ, Ivan
If you delete an Addressbook under: Tools E-mail accounts View or change existing directories or address books Outlook Address Book Change. you have restart Outlook to update this setting. Without a restart the contact folder is still available in the OAB list if you click on the "To" field. -- Oliver Vukovics Share Outlook without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Share your contacts, calendars or e-mails http://www.publicshareware.com "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...

Right. All changes to the OAB require a restart. Always have.
