Clarify what you mean.
There is no address book in Outlook. Only Contact Folders. Post your Outlook version and where you see these two "address books." -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Gael" wrote in message ...

Gael,
Before doing anything, you should backup your PST. You can do this within Outlook by clicking on File, and then Backup... Follow the prompts from there. In "Folders" view, you can open Contacts1, press Ctrl-A (Select All) to select all of those contacts, and then press Ctrl-X (Cut). Then open the Contacts folder and click Ctrl-V (Paste). All of the contacts from the folder "Contacts1" will now be in the folder "Contacts". If there are obvious duplicates, you may want to delete them from Contacts1 before doing the above. Once all of the contacts are in the Contacts folder, you can delte the Contacts1 folder. Hope this helps! -- Jim McGowan "Gael" wrote in message ...

I asked where (as in what view) these two folders appear.
As long as they are in Contacts or Folder List view, your solution would apply. If they appear in the Outlook Address Book as was implied, it would not. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Jim McGowan" wrote in message ... ??? I see "Outlook 2003" in the response.

Gael,
Please understand, Russ answers about 1000 or more to every one that I do!
