Folders in Outlook Contacts (XP,2002)

E

egorth

Recently upgraded from Windows 2000 Pro to Windows XP Pro, SP2. I
exported my Contacts folder and sub-folders to a .pst file. After
upgrading, I imported to the Contacts folder, but find the Contacts
listing does not work the same when sending email and using the To:
option. Sub-folders no longer display. I see a workaround (enable as
email address book) listed in this usergroup, which appears to work
almost the same as Windows 2000 version, but since I have 17
sub-folders and another 60 plus folders under those sub-folders, my
question is - can this "enable as email address book" be done globally?
If not - it sounds like I must do this for 300+ contact entries-that's
a lot of editing to do.

Brief example of sub-folders: Business, Finance, Clients, Education,
Government, CarClub, MotorcycleClub, Friends, Family, Neighbors,
Medical, etc. If there is a better method of organizing a contacts
list other that creating all these sub-folders and sub-sub-folders,
which make them difficult to view in email and To:, I'm open to
suggestions.
