MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / June 2006Removing Outlook contact folders
Hi, I just migrated to Outlook 2007 Bèta and am having a bit of trouble with my address book. I migrated from a non-English version of Office 2003, and now I have two address contact folders, "Contacts" and "Contactpersonen" (the dutch version). Outlook won't let me delete "Contacts" because it's probably the standard Outlook file or something. When I try to use the pull-down menu to copy everything from "Contactpersonen" to "Contacts", it creates a subdirectory in "Contacts" but it won't put the contacts in the root folder... I just don't get it?! Help! Where are you seeing this duplicate? In the Address Book view or in the Navigation pane? How did you migrate your data to the beta version?

Could this have caused the problem? Yes. If you can't R click and close the folder you don't want, you have a corrupt profile. You probably have a corrupt profile anyway if you just did an in place upgrade. Always create a new profile if you attempt an in place upgrade, especially with a beta.

Open the "Contactpersonen" folder, select all the items in it with CTRL-A, and then click Edit>Copy to folder. Specify the Contacts folder as the destination. You can't copy the contents of the folder by copying the folder itself. SignatureBrian Tillman |
