In Outlook 2003 with my email account as a Microsoft Exchange Server account,
I have a duplicate Contact folder listed as a subfolder in my Calendar folder.
This folder is not being used as my main contact folder but whenever I try
to add or update a contact it defaults to this folder.
I tried to relocate all of my contacts from my main folder to this one to
use this as my main but it is not found and cannot be set as my main contact
location for email use.
It is also causing great confusion with my Palm T3 when trying to syc up
with my laptop. My palm also cannot find but is defaulting to this
Calendars/Contacts location.

Try starting Outlook with the /resetfolders command line switch.  Click
Start>Run and enter

"%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office11\Outlook.exe" /resetfolders

in the Open field and click OK.
