can't del items in address book

[jeffroleigh]

Hello,

I am trying to do some housekeeping in my addressbook "Outlook 2003"
(11.6359.6360)SP1.
There are entries there that are not in the
'contacts' folder ( if it matters ), and I am
unable to display the entry, let alone delete
it, which is what I want to do. What shall I do?

Thanks,
Jeff.

Not possible. There is no address book in Outlook. The Outlook Address Book
can only display the contents of one or more of your Contacts Folders. Look
there.
The Outlook Address Book should never be used as an interface for entering,
deleting or editing Contact data--only the Contacts Folders should be used
for that.
