Removing Duplicate Contact Folder
Please would anyone tell me how I can delete a duplicate Outlook 2007
Contacts Folder which is empty? (Unfortunately I checked the wrong duplicates option when importing .pst from CD.) I obviously wish only one Contacts folder which has my addresses in. At the moment, when I wish to send a new message and click the Address Book icon I get a blank search box. Thanks. barry76

You failed to specify from which view you want it removed, and there are
many possibilities. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "barry76" wrote in message ... Please would anyone tell me how I can delete a duplicate Outlook 2007 Contacts Folder which is empty?

Removing Duplicate Contact Folder
Dear Barry,
to delete an "entry" of the Outlook Addressbook listing is in Outlook 2007 only possible if you create a new Outlook profile. You can change the "default" Addressbook. Click on "Tools/Addessbook/Tools/Options". Change the entry of "Show this Adressbook first". Maybe it helps. -- Oliver Vukovics Share Outlook without Exchange (Vista Ready): Public ShareFolder Synchronize Outlook between PC and Notebook: Public SyncTool http://www.publicshareware.com "barry76" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...

Removing Duplicate Contact Folder
No. It is not necessary to create a new Outlook profile just to remove an
invalid Contact Folder reference in the address book view. It is far from clear that that is even what the OP refers to, but if it is, the invalid reference can simply be removed he Tools Account Settings Address Book Tab Outlook Address Book Change... This is one of the settings that is always corrupted when using the import function to transfer Outlook data, but it is one of the easiest to fix. Depending on how much data the OP attempted to import, other settings were likely corrupted as well and many of those will require a new profile to fix. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Oliver Vukovics [Public Shareware]" wrote in message ...

Removing Duplicate Contact Folder
Hi Russ,
I understand his question that he get a wrong contact folder when he click on the "To" field. At the moment, when I wish to send a new message and click the Address Book icon I get a blank search box. I understand his information in this way, that he now has 2 "Contact" folder as "Outlook Addressbook" and he wants to select the correct one with his included contact information. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...127381033.aspx To delete the wrong folder under: Tools Account Settings Address Book Tab Outlook Address Book Change... is a new information for me. Thanks. -- Oliver Vukovics Share Outlook without Exchange (Vista Ready): Public ShareFolder Synchronize Outlook between PC and Notebook: Public SyncTool http://www.publicshareware.com "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...
