Contact folder confusion

P

PSJ

Using Vista home premium -- my windows mail contact list is a photo folder
instead of a contact folder -- instead of having the options to create a new
contact or a contact group I can burn to disk, run a slide show, etc. The
only way I can add a new contact is to create a new message, click on TO:
then click on new contact. Of course, this means no contact groups. What
must I do to change the properties & get the correct commands?

Sounds like your Contacts folder is using the Music folder Template.
Open your contacts folder>right click in a blank area to the right>choose
customise this folder>from the drop down list choose Contacts>apply>OK
