MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / May 2007New Group in 2007
I am working in Outlook BCM 2007 and trying to create groups of contacts. I'm already using all my categories, but need to have an unlimited number of categories available. (I add 2 new groups per month which will eventually be assigned one of the existing categories but for now need to remeain separate.) Am I just missing something? I have tried the "New Group" option, but that doesn't seem to do anything. I can give a title to a new group, but then selecting that button does nothing. Oh, how I miss the days when we could just create file folders & sub-folders!  SignatureValerie > I am working in Outlook BCM 2007 and trying to create groups of > contacts.

You should be able to add categories all you want. Right-click the item, choose Categories, put your category in the "Item(s) belong to these categories" box and click Add to List. You should also be able to click the "Master Category List" button and add what you want there. Now, the truth is that I can check only Outlook 2003 right now, but I can't imagine that Outlook 2007 removed that feature. > I have tried the "New Group" option, but that doesn't seem > to do anything.

SignatureBrian Tillman I find a contact, I right click on the contact, I click on Categorize, I click on All Categories. The Color Categories are listed along with the category (from Outlook 2003) that the contact is in. That category is noted as not in Master Category List. No where is there a button for accessing the Master Category List. How do I access the Master C ategory List? CE > > I am working in Outlook BCM 2007 and trying to create groups of > > contacts.

You're already there. The MCL is what you see when you click the Categorize button, then All Categories. To add a listed non-MCL category to the MCL, select it, then click New.
