2 contacts folders..how to set one to default
We have two contacts folders in Outlook 2003. One named "Contacts" the other
"Contacts-Beth" (1 is mine, one is my wife's). When composing a message, if you click the "To" button it will open to the "Contacts" folder listing. I'd like it to default to the "Contacts-Beth" folder. I did it once but since installing a new hard drive, OS, etc., I can't recall how I did it. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance. Jerry

Thanks, Brian, but I'm not sure I'm getting to where you want me to go. When
I have my Contacts showing in Outlook and click "Tools-Options" I see the following tabs: Preferences, Mail Settings, Mail Format, Spelling, Security, and Other. Where would I find something related to "sort order?" Now, it's possible that I'm not seeing anything because I'm at my computer at work, which only has one Contacts folder. It's my one at home that has the two. Sorry to be so dense... Jerry "Brian Tillman" wrote: JWCrosby wrote: We have two contacts folders in Outlook 2003.

I didn't say "with Contacts showing," I said "in the Address Book," where the "Show Names from the" drop-down you yourself mention is displayed. -- Brian Tillman
