2 contacts folders with the same name, but I see just 1 of them, How to delete the 2nd?

[ThunderMusic]

Hi,
In my outlook 2000, I managed to create a contact folder twice with the
same name (I don't know how, but I did). Now both folders appear when I
click on the "To" button in a new e-mail. One of them contains my contacts
and the other is empty. I want to delete the empty one. The problem is that
one one of those 2 folders appear under contacts and it's the one that
contains my contacts (not the empty one). How can I delete the empty one?

Thanks

ThunderMusic

Very odd. I'd love to know how you did that.
You should post your mail support mode before we try anything. Line 2 of
Help | About, if you don't know.
