When I Select Lookup Contact from an email address, is there a way to direct
it to look up from a folder other than contacts?
OL 2007
ie have a personal contact folder and a contact folder, I want it to lookup
in Personal Folder.
Thanks
Also when adding from email address can I soecify what folder to add to.

Right-click the contact folder you want to lookup, choose Properties and in
the Outlook Address Book tab, choose the Show this folder as an e-mail
Address Book.

Then when you open a new message in the To button, you'll have this contact
folder to choose from.

Cheers,

When i receive an email I click the address and say add to outlook contacts
, is there a way to add it to a folder other than the "Contact" folder.

I Have
Contacts
Personal Contacts
Business Contacts
Can I add to Business Contacts Automatically.

I tried as you suggested that did allow a search of that folder.

When you right-click and choose Add to Contacts, Outlook should open a
contact form. Instead of clicking Save and Close, click FileMove to
Folder, specifying the folder you want to contain it.

Thanks for the repy Bob.
Simple solutions are usually the best, and the ones most often overlooked.
