Default Outlook Contacts Missing Notes After Export-Import

I just want to start off by saying you guys are the best. The BEST I say!

I saved my Outlook.pst file and went over the my manager's computer full of
trepidation, shaky hands and all. I opened Outlook, then Contacts, and
finally opened the Outlooks.pst file while I was in the Contacts view.
Voila!!! All my Contacts and Notes appeared, WHEW. That would have been hours
of work done the drain.

Thankfully, the Inbox and all his email was untouched. However, there is one
wee problem. He now has two Contacts folders (one named Contacts and a new
one, Contacts in Personal folders) and two Calendars as well (Calendars and
Calendars in Personal folders). This is going to make him go MENTAL, he is so
particular about his Outlook Calendar.

I checked all the links Russ supplied regarding moving .PST files in outlook
(for instance:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...08921033.aspx). This
particular link discusses removing the duplicate files as eaily as
right-clicking and then choosing to Close Personal Folders. Alas, that option
did not appear for me. It says further if one cannot close the folder ther
the "default delivery location is still pointing to the wrong file."

Que?

I am so close to finally getting this right, so please chime in if you know
how to get rid of the duplicate files.

Much thanks,
Cat
