Choose File | Copy to Folder instead of Save and Close. You'll still have to open the contact from the Business Contacts folder to link it with an Account.

Thanks Sue. I cannot see how this answer is relevant to my question though. I
just want to take an email address from an email sent to me by - right click- drop down menu apppears- gives a possibility of - "add name to Contacts"- I dont want to- I want to be able to add it to "Business Contacts". How can I make the drop down menu give me the option of saying "add to Business Contacts" "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Choose File | Copy to Folder instead of Save and Close.

Not possible. Outlook does not support doing exactly what you want to do with exactly the keystrokes you want. What I suggested was what I have found to be the closest equivalent.

OK Thanks Still do not understand how your answer addresses my question in
anyway at all! But I have found another option. 1.Highlight the email that contains the address you wish to add to your Business Contacts. 2. Click- Add email link- which then creates a ne Business Contact with an email adddress which you can then go into later to add other detail you wish. "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Not possible.
