I have created a number of customized views for my contact folders in OL 03.
When I click
"View / Arrange by / Current View / Define Views" I get the "Custom View
Organizer" dialog box. In this box I have 12 Custom views, all of which are
of the "Table" view type.

In the column titled "Can be used on" 6 of the views say simply "This
folder". The others say "This folder (private view)".

Can someone tell me what the words "(private view)" mean?

Thank you for your help.

Bob
