Save changes to contact popup when no changes were made.
For some contacts I always get the save changes dialog when I try to close
it. Other contacts just close without asking. I don't see a pattern. In either case I didn't make any changes. All I have to do is open the item and close it immediately after to be asked if I want to save the changes. Even if I say yes, then reopen/close it again for a test it still asks if I want to save the changes. |

We don't see a pattern either. Since you're there and we aren't, and since
you know your Outlook version/information store and we don't, you're in a much better position to solve this than we would be. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "HangedMan" wrote in message ...

No clues here. Steps used to create the problem? Add-in's? Custom forms?
You've given us nothing to go on and it is not a reported problem. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "HangedMan" wrote in message ...

Save changes to contact popup when no changes were made.
I have no add-ins or custom forms. No steps either, just open the contact and
I'm asked if I want to save the changes... I just had an idea, I went clicking on contacts and closing them until I found one that asked me if I want to save the changes, so then I made a copy of that contact and started deleting things out of it until I could open/close it without the save changes question and it turns out (I did some other tests to confirm it) that it happens only to contacts that have one or more email addresses.

I suspect there is something else different between the Contacts that throw
the prompt and those that don't. Were these Contacts all created similarly and in the same version of Outlook?

Can't say they were all created in the same version of outlook. I've had
outlook for years. I can tell you that if I take an old contact that doesn't do it (does not have an email address), it starts doing it when I add an email address. I also just created a new contact just for the test and it didn't do it, but when I added an email address it started to also. The new test contact only had a first and last name and an email address.

How did you migrate your data to the beta? Have you tried what I suggested?

Save changes to contact popup when no changes were made.
I had office xp pro installed, installed the beta and just continued using
the same .pst file. I don't know of any other way. Sometime later I uninstalled office xp pro. I just did a repair, no luck so I deleted my profile and created another. It's still asking me if I want to save changes as previously described though I didn't make any. Everything else is working perfectly.

This doesn't fit. If you did an upgrade installation from Office XP to the
beta, there would be no Office XP to "uninstall." You repaired your file, right, not your installation? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "HangedMan" wrote in message ...
