Save changes to contact popup when no changes were made.

I had some additional programs like front page that were part of the xp
installation left over that I uninstalled later. The add/remove programs
still had it listed as office xp. I used the repair feature of office 2007
beta from add/remove programs.

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?

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.

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

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.

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? Have you tried any routine
maintenance
like repairing your data file or creating a new profile?

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.

You've given us nothing to go on and it is not a reported problem.

Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 (Beta) (12.04407.1004) MSO
(12.04407.1005)
BETA

In English that's office 2007 beta with the Beta 2 technical
refresh.

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.

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.
