I have my contacts organized in subfolders within the Contacts folder.
However, when I want to sent a new message and click on the 'To' or 'cc'
buttons on the relevant message dialog box lines, I can only choose the
Contacts folder itself and do NOT see the subfolders contained therein. Is
there a workaround? I do NOT w ant to put all my contacts directly in the
'Contacts' folder.

Right click on each of your sub-folders and select Properties. On the
Address Book tab, enable each one as an Outlook Address Book.
