Default Online Contacts vs Internal Contacts

I'm using Outlook XP at home, POP3 account setting. I created an account
with a profile, I chose to use an existing PST file as my "Deliver New
Email" location. In that PST file has a folder "Contacts", which has some
contacts listed. When I click on the address book icon to open it, and go
to contacts, it is blank. I gather there are two different contact
listings???

I transferred the contacts from the Online Deliver New Email "Contacts"
folder to the one when you click on the address book, Contacts. Here's what
I done, I right clicked on the Contacts Folder Properties Outlook
Address Book Tab, and checked "Show this folder as an email address book".
That did partly what I wanted but not exactly. Doing that, I now have "2"
contacts listed, one is blank and the other of course is one I just created.

I believe the blank Contact, is actually the system generated one when the
profile was created. I really want the contacts from the "Folder Contacts"
to be in the system generated one, and not create a second contact list.
Is it possible?

Thanks in advance, Mark
