    - 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.

    - Share contacts with Windows Live & Outlook Is it possible to share contacts between Windows Live and Outlook? I do not want to integrate my Hotmail account within Outlook using the Office Connector, as suggested by Microsoft. All I want is to run Windows Live for my Hotmail personal email account only and Outlook for my business email account only, using just one Address Book. If I update an address in Outlook, I would like Windows Live to be able to immediately use that address, and vice versa. I currently use Outlook Express for my current Hotmail account. Up to now, I have been able to use the same address book using the registry fix where Outlook Express uses the Outlook Address Book. How can I continue that functionality after I am forced to switch from Outlook Express to Windows Live? Thanks Tag: save to a CD Tag: 124569

    - 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. However, it will only allow me to select 1 folder, not multiple folders (like on a .pst) and it won't allow me to select the "search subfolders" option. 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. However, I am using an Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2007. Is this a known bug or do I have to create the Contacts folder on the Exchange differently? Thanx for any hints/replies.

    - Force Outlook to use only one contacts folder (2003) XP Pro, Outlook (Office) 2003 SP3 (SMTP / POP3 mail, no Exchange Server, LAN) I must not have something configured correctly, and I'm getting lost trying to find help in the knowledgebase so I'm turning to this group. On my desktop at work I have two different logins that I use. The old, local, login is not used much any more but is where everything began. The new, network domain, login is now where I spend most of my time. This morning I discovered that Outlook is putting new addresses into the 'new' addressbook instead of the 'old' one which has all my contacts. What are my options? I really only need one contacts folder instead of two, but at this point I don't know 1) how to synchronize the two books or 2) how to tell Outlook to only use one of them. In fact, I was not even able to determine how to rename them so I can tell which one I'm looking at ... Outlook shows me two choices, both named "Contacts."

    - Outlook link between contacts and mail A couple of weeks ago my computer failed - possibly due to virus or other error. Through use of a boot disk, I was able to save my .pst files to another drive. I have formated a new drive, reinstalled Windows, Office, etc. I copied my .pst file to the new drive. Outlook now shows two Personal Folders files, with two Contacts files, as well as a Business Contacts file which I filled by importing from my Contacts folder. My contacts files are all complete and contain all of the previous contact information from the drive that failed, but I cannot access any of them from the Mail function. If I select New from the mail window and then attempt to fill an address by selecting To: or cc: I get a blank dialog box and cannot type anything into it. I can, however, start from the Contacts window and initiate an email but if I want to use multiple recipients or CC, etc. I have to then copy and paste all of the addresses into the email form.
