address and contacts

[sundial]

I am really having a problem understanding how outlook handles email address
books. It was really easy in oulook express. In outlook you cannot have the
different address books as in the express, why?

Sure you can.
Create as many Contacts Folders as you wish.
Enable each as an email address book.
Instructions are everywhere:
