Contacts Folder Layout
Is it possible to change the layout of the Contacts view? I know how to add
and remove fields from the view, that's not the issue. The problem is with "general" fields of "Click Here To Add A New Contact" and "Search Contacts". Right now, if I click on the Contact view and type a name, it will assume I'm adding a new name. I'd like the "Search Contacts" field to be the primary active field so that when I click on the Contacts view and start typing, it will be filling in letters into the "Search Contacts" field. If I could remove the "Click Here To Add A New Contact" field from the view all together. Can I somehow move the "Search Contacts" folder from its current location on the right hand side to be on the left? Thanks for your help. -- Programmer on Budget

Contacts Folder Layout
you can remove the click here row - you need to customize the view - it’s
in the other settings button, new item row near the top of the dialog. You'll also want to disable in-cell editing.
