I am not sure what you mean by filter. Is this for outlook or for excel?
are there step-by-step directions?

How can I remove "United States of America" from contacts?
you'll need to edit each one or use a VBA script to remove them in outlook.
see if outlookcode.com has any sample code. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "mrkmstrtt" wrote in message ... i would like to remove them from outlook. thanks, diane "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: do you need to remove them from excel or from outlook? -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "mrkmstrtt" wrote in message ...

How can I remove "United States of America" from contacts?
I just had the same problem. Here's a solution I found on several web sites:
While in Outlook's contact list, change the view to "By Location" (View-Current View-By Location). Now select one or more of the contacts with USA in the "Country/Region" field and drag them to a contact with a blank "Country/Region" field. The "Country/Region" will be changed to blank, but the rest of the information will not be altered. You have to use the "By Location" view - sorting them by the country field in a different view won't work the same way!
