Default duplicate contacts folder in "Show names from the:" window

"Remove Address Book" provides a list of Folders you can remove. All you
need to do is remove the invalid folder. You do not need to remove the
entire Outlook Address Book. Any change to the Outlook Address Book
configuration requires a restart to appear, but not a Detect and Repair.

Hey Russ...

Maybe you could elaborate and tell us what the next step is after
"Change..." The only options I saw were "Remove Address Book" and
"Close".
As I said, that alone didn't work because it was still showing. It stayed
there until I did the "Detect and Repair". Selecting "Remove Address Book"
didn't affect any of my other contacts. That's what worked and that's all
that matters.

Thanks for your input.

You do not need to remove the entire address book or repair Outlook.

Disregard folks. Thanks anyway but I fixed it.

I went through the following and "removed" the folder:
Tools E-mail accounts View or change existing directories or
address
books Outlook Address Book Change Remove Address Book.

I was still showing so I then used "Detect and Repair" under the Help
Menu
and that did the trick.
