MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / October 2005Groups appear in 'Contacts', but not on my Address Book ..
I'm with a school district, with tons of contacts, that I've created in separate groups (Job related, Career Day, Adult Ed, etc.). I noticed that when I created contacts within those groups, and wanted to create a Distribution List and 'select' contacts within that group, my 'Address Book' does not show those groups. I guess the question is that these groups which I created show on my Contacts tab, but not on the Address Book. We did recently switch from Outlook 2000 to 2003, and we are on a network. I can send an MS Word attachment with screen prints if this would help ... just need an email address to send to. Thanks,  SignatureR.S.Hayne Central Computer Training > I'm with a school district, with tons of contacts, that I've created > in separate groups (Job related, Career Day, Adult Ed, etc.). Are you speaking of categories? If not, what do you mean by "groups"? SignatureBrian Tillman Under my default 'Contacts', I created 3 subfolders, because they shared commonalities. When I select Contacts, I'll see those three folders (or 'groups' or categories .. whatever they're called). I can open those folders, create new contacts within those folders, etc. However, when I access the Address Book, those folders do not show up. If, for instance, I want to build a distribution list from contacts I've added to one of those folders I created (like 'Adult Ed'), and then I want to 'select members' to add to that DL, this goes to the Address Book. I cannot see those folders I created in the Address Book.

Right-click each, choose Properties, select the Outlook Address Book tab and check the box labeled "Show this folder an an e-mail Address Book". SignatureBrian Tillman |
