There is no data in the Address Book view. The Address Book simply displays
the Contact Folders in your profile. How many Contact Folders do you have in
your profile? Do you need more than one? Might your Address Book have some
outdated references to Contact Folders? What are "common Conmtacts?"

I have 3 contact folders. 1 with about 50 names. Another with about 25 names
and another with 15, all of the names also in the 50 name one.
When I change data in the 50 named one I thought it would act as a master
and change all off them.But, I have to go into each one and update.
I really don't need 3 it's just a mater of convenience all I have to do is
highlight all of them and click TO for the addresses. Maybe I'm going at it
wrong..

State more clearly what you are trying to achieve. If you don't need three
Contact Folders, why do you have them? Entering or editing Contact data will
only apply to the folder in which you are making changes.
