MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / September 2006can I save addresses to my Personal Folder instead of Contacts
I see lots of instructions for saving addresses to my contacts folder, but some times I want to save them to my personal folder instead, without manually typing them in. Has onyone got any ideas on this. Thanks LeicesLad Dear LeicesLad, what do you mean with: ...some times I want to save them to my personal folder instead, without manually typing them in. I always have to type my addresses into my personal folder. Do you want to move incoming emails into your contact folder to create autommaticly the contact? -- Oliver Vukovics Share Outlook without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Share your contacts, calendars or e-mails http://www.publicshareware.com >I see lots of instructions for saving addresses to my contacts folder, but > some times I want to save them to my personal folder instead, without > manually typing them in. > Has onyone got any ideas on this. > Thanks > LeicesLad all I have to do to enter addresses into my Contacts, is to right click on the address and click on add to contacts, and it's done. I want to do the same for my personal address book. This has nothing to do with saving mail, just Email addresses > Dear LeicesLad, > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > Thanks > > LeicesLad Dear LeicesLad, In your first email you wrote "my personal folder" not my "personal address book". This is why i asked again, sorry. I found this site with information for "How to manage the Personal Addressbook and the Outlook Addressbook": http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/olconpab.htm I hope it helps. -- Oliver Vukovics Share Outlook without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Share your contacts, calendars or e-mails http://www.publicshareware.com > all I have to do to enter addresses into my Contacts, is to right click on > the address and click on add to contacts, and it's done.

That feature has been obsolete for years and years. Keep all your contacts in your Contacts folder.  SignatureBrian Tillman I don't like Contacts, but I do like the Personal Address Book. There was until a few days ago a right click shortcut that had "Add to Personal Address Book". This is now changed to "Add to Contacts." I want the "Add to Personal Address Book" option back! If I have both contacts and Personal Address book set up, I should be able to add to both. Just my 2c! > > all I have to do to enter addresses into my Contacts, is to right > > click on the address and click on add to contacts, and it's done.

Abandon ship while there's still time!

For me to add to contacts, then add to a distribution list, then delete from contacts is hell of a lot of work and is one issue leading to my decision to switch to ACT. > I see lots of instructions for saving addresses to my contacts folder, but > some times I want to save them to my personal folder instead, without > manually typing them in. > Has onyone got any ideas on this. > Thanks > LeicesLad > I want an email address only, I do not want a contact. WHere would you store that address, if not in your Contacts folder? > For me to add > to contacts, then add to a distribution list, then delete from > contacts is hell of a lot of work and is one issue leading to my > decision to switch to ACT. Distributions Lists can certainly contain addresses not in your Contacts. All you must do it type them in. SignatureBrian Tillman
