Default Contact Customisation

Hi,

I usually download my mail to my laptop rather than
keeping it on the server... I understand I seem to have
made a real mess of this, would you be able to help me
set it up to tidy everything up. I sync my pda calendar,
contacts & email from my outlook on my laptop to my
PDA...Not sure what i need to do to sort all this...

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

John

This is getting more troubling all the time. Apparently

you are using an
Exchange mailbox as your information store. Why do you

also have 2 sets of
Personal Folders in your Profile? Most Exchange

administrators prefer not to
use Personal Folders with Exchange.

Let's make sure that is the case, first. Your post is

confusing. I don't
know what you mean by Contacts labeled Personal

Folders.
Use the Folder List view (icon at the bottom of the

Navigation Pane) to
display your entire Folder tree.
How many sets of Personal Folders (also

called "Outlook
Today")?
How many Contact Folders?

Hi,

I may have done exactly as you stated. I only have

one
contacts that are labelled Personal Folders.

I am not sure where I went wrong...

You've left out too much information for anyone to

help
you.
Outlook does not show two Contacts Folders unless

you've
configured it to do
so, even if you did so inadvertently. Tell us how

you
did this. I'm
suspicious you migrated data incorrectly.
How many Personal Folders Files do you have in this
profile?

Hiya, I am a new user of Outlook 2003 and am

trying
to
figure out how to setup my contacts....The

contact
view
shows I have 2 Contact lists under My Contacts. I

have
Contacts and Contacts in Personal Folders. Both

of
these
locations have the same contacts. How do I change

it so
that only my contacts in personal folders are

shown
and
also that the other one is deleted to free up
space..As I
am assuming I only need the one section
