In Vista's address book- also known as Windows Contacts- there is supposed
to be a menu bar at the top- with one button called New Contact Group- used
to set up a list- this according to the help files and the Vista book I
have- but when I open up Windows Contacts- I don't see any such button- I
see instead the buttons you see when you open up most directories- "Organize
Views Slide Show Burn".

I don't get it.

Joe

It sounds like your Contacts folder is using the wrong folder template to
display.

Open your Contacts folder from the toolbar button>right click in a blank
area of the folder>select 'customise this folder'>select Contacts from the
drop down menu.
