I have entered my list of contact names and addresses into the Contact
folder. In order to view them, I have to scroll to the end of the listing
whether I am displaying the address cards or the phone listing. They are not
displayed at the beginning of the Contacts. When I attempt to print the
phose list, the printing starts from the beginning of the list, and proceeds
through countless blank pages until it gets to the end where muy items are
displayed. Why are they displayed this way, and how can I get the
information to the beginning of the contacts list?

If you display the folder in a list format can you highlight & delete the
'empty' contact records?

I can't figure out how to highlight all of the entries. I tried hitting
control and scrolling down, but that didn't work. Short of individually
clicking on each entry, I'm stuck -- and there are probaby over a thousand
blank entries. I thought that they should start listing from the top, but
for some reason, mine started from the bottom.

If you highlight the first empty contact then hold down the shift key and
hit the down arrow, what happens?

That works. Hopwever, if I remover all of the blank entries until I get to
my contacts, what happens when I want to add more contacts?

They should be added normally. Not sure where all the blanks came from.
