I am converting to Outlook 2002, from Outlook express 6, and have a small
problem with the address book. In express we could have multiple folders
under the Main identity contacts folder, thus allowing each member of the
family to keep their email address seperate.
In 2002, I can only find the Contacts and Personal Address Book, but oit
won't let me add more than one Personal address book.
Is there a way around this limitation in 2002.

Do not use the Personal Address Book service. It is obsolete. Instead, use
Contact folders. You can create as many of those as you want.

If you're using an operating system that supports it, use separate WIndows
users for each family member. That way everyone's mail will be completely
separate, similar to OE's Identities (providing, of course, that you each
have separate email addresses).
