Changing Contacts Folder

New laptop, same OS (XP Pro), same software (Office 2003). Previously synched
Outlook email with my Windows Mobile 6 device so I decided to let it bring my
2,000 contacts, calendar items and all my emails over to my new machine. Went
smooth.

However, when sending a new email and clicking on the "To:" button, I get an
error saying the 'Contact' folder has been moved or deleted. When I click
"OK", that box disappears and a "Select Names" box pops up. In the top, right
corner of this box there is a box that shows "Show names from the:" and under
that 'Contacts' is highlighted.

Now if I click on the drop-down arrow, it lists "Outlook Address Book" and
two "Contacts" folders. When I click on the second one, all my contacts show
up in the box below.

So, I am assuming, when I copied all my contacts over via ActiveSync and my
handheld, it created another "Contacts" folder. How do I make this the folder
that Outlook references when I click on the :To:" button to send a new email?

Also, by doing this, will it change the fact that, in the current situation,
when I click on the "Contacts" tab (under Mail and Calendar) I can see all my
contacts fine?
