    - Outlook Contacts I recently upgraded from Outlook 2002 to Outlook 2002. It used to be that when I composed a new message, I could type in the name in the TO field, and it would check my contact list and fill in the email address, or I could click on the down arrow next to the TO field and it would give me a list of everyone in my contacts list. Now when I compose a new message, it gives me a squiggly red line because it wants me to select between two duplicate names (one is a fax address and one is an email address). I don't use Outlook to fax messages. How can I get Outlook to automatically select the email address, and ingore the fax addresses?

    - Destination folders do not show when importing to Contacts I'm using Outlook 2003. When I try to import an Excel sheet to a contacts folder, the folder does not show. In fact, none of my contacts folders show, just email pst folders. I know I've done this before but can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong this time. What I've done: I highlight the contacts folder that I want to import to, then I go to <File> <Import Export> <Import from another program>, select the Excel sheet where the contacts are located and that's as far I get, because there are no Destination folders available. Can someone help me with this? Thanks. JMTP Tag: Add contacts to distribution lists via the Contact's profile windo Tag: 124705

    - Outlook 2003 Check Names-Is it possible to skip/clear missing emai I often send to a broadcast list that changes frequently so I am constantly being asked to 'Check Names'. In each case, when I cancel, I am required to locate, in a very small box with many names, the one name I am having a problem with, remove it and then restart the check names. Since I often I have 20-30 invalid addresses, I have to repeat this process of stopping and restarting many times. I'd like to be able to have Outlook simply skip/delete the incorrect entries. Is there any way of doing this? I can't believe I am required to do this one at a time. There's got to be a better way. Any ideas? Help!

    - windows contacts and outlook contacts Recently, my system crashed and I had to restore everything. After lots of editing and removing of duplicates, my Outlook 2007 contacts are now just the way I want them. However, I notice that my Windows contacts folder is not synched with it -- there are duplicate records and the creation dates are old. How do I get my Windows contacts folder to synch with what is correct and up to date from my Outlook contacts? Tag: Add contacts to distribution lists via the Contact's profile windo Tag: 124698

    - Missing Contacts Folder in Outlook 2003 SP-3 I was/am setting up my Outlook on my new (Vista) machine. I was going through removing all duplicate contacts, and placing tem in a separate folder - Duplicate Contacts. In the meantime I was setting up some o my views. In doing so, I mistakenly selected names from the Duplicates folder to place in the "To" field as part of the view definition. Then, I believe that I deleted the Duplicates folder. Now, when I go to these views, I get an error because the name designated in the "To" field exists no more, since the folder itself is (apparently) gone. But I canot seem to get rid of the link between the view and the Duplicates folder and correctly tie it to the name in the Contacts folder. Is there a way to fix this? And to remove the "Duplicate Contacts folder from the Outlook "memory"?

    - Temporarily changing contents of Contact lists I have set up several versions of my Contact List for forwarding e mails w/o covering the sender. Periodically many of my contacts ask that I not send mail because they will be out of town. Without going through and manually deleting a contact from each of the lists (in this case 26 lists) is there another way to temporarily remove a contact? In a perfect world this would also have an option for the time period that the contact would be deleted. If I delete/change the address in the Contacts list in my address book it does not change it in does not change it in the contacts list. Any suggestions?

    - Contacts Randomly Disappearing in Outlook. Hi everyone, One of my clients has contacts disappearing from their contact list. The contacts are disappearing randomly with no pattern I can identify. I've done a search, but I haven't found any satisfactory answers. The customer is in a hosted exchange environment (meaning the exchange server is hosted off-site along with a Blackberry Exchange Server service). Only one account is affected (that we can identify). Three other people have editor access (and they are not deleting these contacts). There are 7 other users, but they only have reviewer status. There is one more twist. The actual user does not actually add/remove anything from the list. Their office manager manages the list from her computer. I can't seem to replicate the problem anywhere else (and I don't have a Blackberry server to use either). So I'm hoping someone here can help me. Thanks.

    - Sorting Email Addresses in Address Book I use Outlook 2007. I want my contacts sorted by last name or -- if no last name -- business name. HOWEVER, I want my email addresses first name, last name so when I begin to type and email address to "John Smith" it comes out at "John Smith" and I don't have to remember to type "Smith, John" and I especially do not want it to appear in an email as "Smith, John." I have followed all sorts of instructions about changing the address book settings to first name, last name sorting and it does not have any impact on what I have. I change it and it still remaines "Last name, First name" . I have done this and restarted it and then done it again and restarted it. What am I missing?

    - Import my Contatcs from Palm to Outlook 2007 I exported my addresses from Palm Desktop to a .csv file in Excel.

When I go into my Outlook to Import the .csv, it all loads into my contacts but only the first 3 columns? So all I get is First Name, Last Name & Company? Am I doing something wrong, I cant seem to get the addresses or phone numbers in there? I also tried doing a sample backwards, exporting from outlook to excel and then importing to Palm, and it all worked great everything was there.

    - Outlook driving me mad! Hi, I am trying to import my contacts from an Excel spreadsheet into Outlook. I feel like I have tried EVERYTHING! I have saved my data as both an excel spreadsheet and in CSV format. I have made sure the columns AND the range of data is identified. I check and check again to make sure my fields are mapped correctly. I have tried eliminating symbols that might interfere (even though I don't see why they would). Every time I do the import, all of the data is imported EXCEPT for the address.... it gets the name, city, state, phone etc etc but ALWAYS leaves out the address! Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it? If so, I would greatly appreciate some help. Thanks!

When I create a new distribution list in outlook 07 it will not allow me to just copy and paste all the address from the sheet. I am guessing they have to be set up as contacts first?

    - How to intelligently and automatically merge duplicate contacts I imported 2500 old contacts and created about 90% duplicates. I'm using Office Outlook 2007 and I can't believe that there is no tool in this software to intelligently merge duplicates that have been created via the import tool. Does anyone out there know of a third party tool that will do this? It would be simple logic: If the contacts have the same modification date then delete one or the other. If they aren't identical, then ask the user which to keep or better, keep the conflicting fields from the newest record and delete the older content and merge the duplicate contacts into one contact record.

    - Activities Search List for Contact Folders in Exchange I have created a contact folder in Exchange and I am trying to setup the Activities search list for that folder.

When I click on other folders to search, it gives me a message stating that the Contacts folder only allows activities search in 1 folder. Basically, I want to be able to do an Activities search like in a .pst where I can select any number of folder for the Activities search to process.

    - dumping deleted items in Outlook I have a contact that I deleted in Outlook that is stuck in the deleted file. It won't delete. It says it cannot be displayed in the reading pane. When I try to delete it, I get a message that says errors have been detected and to use the inbox repair tool but it won't download anything. All other items in the deleted file have to then be manually one by one deleted around this file. Tag: Add contacts to distribution lists via the Contact's profile windo Tag: 124545

    - how do I stop business card from also appearing as an attachment? I created an electronic business card in Outlook to add to my emails. But now when I send an email out, it appears not only as an image in the body of the message, but also as an attachment to the email. How do I stop it from sending out twice within an email? I have been deleting the attachment with every email I send. Tag: Add contacts to distribution lists via the Contact's profile windo Tag: 124544

When adding a new contact, Outlook should allow you to add the contact to a
dist list in the Contact's Properties. Also, Outlook should allow us to look
up a contact and see what Dist lists the contact is on...

Requested for a decade. We're told it can't be done.
