Default We don't want to share our contacts and they are!!!

My wife and I are on the same Laptop with Outlook and have just noticed that
when she adds a contact it not only is added to her list but it adds the
contact in my contact list also. If she deletes a contact, it delete's it
from my contact list. How do I stop this from happening. She wants to
control her contact list separetely from mine and visa-versa!!!

Thanks

It sounds like you are both using the same profile. I would create a new
profile for yourself, so that your folders and contacts are yours, etc.

This should help, if you have two separate email addresses
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...549031033.aspx

If you don't, you might try setting up a separate Contacts category for
yourself by going to Contacts and right clicking, and choosing Categories.
You'll have to separate your contacts to the two categories for each of you.
