sorting contacts when click on TO: in a new message

[Behrang]

hi,

i just upgraded from outlook xp to 2003 and i'm having a problem that
i need to solve. i have my contacts setup with folders and each
folder containing contacts...

example:

Contacts

Baseball
----Red Sox
--------player 1
--------player 2

Buildings
----701
------ibm
------acnet
------hp
----702

now after i upgraded i had to go to every single folder and right
click on it then tell it to show as an email address book for it show
up. at thsi point i could go and create a new email, click on TO: and
would see a long list of folders. you have to select the folder and
then select the contact after a popup.

i want to know how i can click on TO: and see my main folders and then
click to the sub folders and see teh contacts in the sub foldes. why
should i see 20 folders when i want to click on one, go to the sub and
click on a contact... its stupid.

any help will be great. Thanks!

Did you ever think about putting all your contacts in one folder and
organizing them by categories?
