Default How do I select where new contacts are stored (Mailbox or Prs. Fld

When I create a new contact and say Save, the contact is automaitcally stored
in Mailbox contacts but I would like them to be stored in Personal Folders
Contacts.

Where can I define that?

THX, Gordan

You can't. They get stored in the Contacts folder in your default message
store (in your case, your mailbox)

For Outlook 2003, the Save button will store the new contact in whatever
Contact folder you're in when you click NewContact or in your default
Contacts folder, if you're not in any Contacts folder.

It works the same way in all versions of Outlook BTW.
