duplicate contacts folder in "Show names from the:" window
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. -- - Dave (PiroNaut)________________________________________ ______________________________ Dell Dimension XPS 600, Intel® Pentium® D 3.20GHz CPU Windows XP/ME "Dave" wrote: I have two "contacts" folders listed in the "Show names from the:" window when I auther new emails.

Actually, all you needed to do was remove the invalid reference to a
Contacts Folder he Tools E-mail accounts View or change existing directories or address books Outlook Address Book Change… You do not need to remove the entire address book or repair Outlook. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "PiroNaut" wrote in message ...

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. -- - Dave (PiroNaut)________________________________________ ______________________________ Dell Dimension XPS 600, Intel® Pentium® D 3.20GHz CPU Windows XP/ME "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Actually, all you needed to do was remove the invalid reference to a Contacts Folder he Tools E-mail accounts View or change existing directories or address books Outlook Address Book Change… You do not need to remove the entire address book or repair Outlook. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "PiroNaut" wrote in message ...

"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. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "PiroNaut" wrote in message ... Hey Russ...
