When I create a new email and I click on the To: only some of my address
books show in the drop down menu in the Select Names window. How do I merge
all my address books so I can select names from them too?

Sorry if this is a duplicate post as the other page had errors and I wasn't
sure if it posted or not.

What do you mean only some of your "address books?" Outlook uses Contact
Folders, not address books. The address book view will show only the
folders you've enabled to display as email address books in their
properties.

And on top of what Russ says, only those contacts with electronic addresses
(email and fax) will show in the Address Book view.
