I had to delete a bunch of my contacts and re enter them.  Got that finished
and wanted to make some groups.  When I tried to create a new group in the
address book in the folder it posted as contact person and I want it by
company.  Where you enter the contact info the default is set for company and
in that folder it saved by company.  How can I change how it saved for the
address book?  There aren't any instructions I could find in help

Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.  All
unsolicited mail sent to my personal account will be deleted without
reading.

State your Outlook version.  Outlook does not use groups, Outlook Express
does.

I'm using Outlook 2000.  What has happenec - I have 200 contacts totally - I
had to split them between Christian and Non Christian then in each of these 2
they get broken down into what project they pertain to (we have 3 projects on
the go) so I figured if I stored them and made a group for each of the
projects it would be better than having a copy in each of the 3 project
folders and all I would have to do would keep them seperate as Christian and
Non?  The instructions said I could make a group up so that is what I tried
to do (without success)  I don't use outlook for my e-mails.  This is purely
for a data base of contact companies.

Assign categories to your Contacts to separate the sheep from the goats.
