Outlook 2003 SP1.
I use two different contact folders at work, one for business and one
for personal.
When I select the To: button on a new message, then select the Show
names from the: field and when I select the personal folder, no names
appear. I have tried to find how to get them to appear but no luck so
far. Anyone know how to do this.

Have you enabled the Contacts folder as an address book? Right-click the
Contacts folder, choose Properties, select the Outlook Address Book tab and
check the box labeled "Show this fodler as an e-mail Address Book".
