Hi
Somehow I seem to have two contact folders in my address book
One has most of my contacts & the other has just two
How do I move the two over & then remove the unnecessary folder?

You do nothing in the address book view.
First use Folder list view to consolidate Contacts into the one folder. Then
you can delete the empty folder.
After that you can go into Tools > Options in the Address Book view to
remove the empty folder from the display.

Thanks Russ
Eventually got it sorted
In the folder list view all I have is the two contacts folder.
Yet in the address book view there are two 'contacts' folders, one
with many & the one with 2

Gosh!! when I look further down the folder list view I have 3 personal
folders AND 3 archive folders WHAT A MESS
So I copied all contacts, archived emails inbox & outbox to my most
up-to-date personal folder and removed the clutter.
I have no idea how it got in such a mess.

Usually this happens when you migrate data from one installation to another
improperly, like by importing for example.
