MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / March 2006adding columns in "category" view
I have a rather large contact list to create. I'd like to do it in the "Category" view because it's easier and faster. I am unable to create additional colums that are capable of accepting information...like: "Address", "E-mail", etc. Of course I can do it in "address card" view. Why not "category" view? I can add the columns but they won't accept date. Thanks. From your description I am not sure exactly what won't work for you but here's some tips: Turn on the Advanced Toolbar. Use the Field Chooser to drag additional Column headers into the by Category view table that you like. You don't need to make new fields, just show the ones already in Outlook. What does "won't accept date" mean?

I did the drag and drop thing you suggested but I'm unable to put data into these newly added columns. This happens only in "category" view. Does this happen to you? Thanks, emlawpro > From your description I am not sure exactly what won't work for you but > here's some tips: [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > not "category" view?
