How can I delete a address contact folder

C

Candice

I have 3 email accounts setup in Outlook Express. I am
running XP. I noticed when I go to each Address Book in
OExpress, there is a Shared Contacts folder and then a
2nd folder underneath that identity title (Candice
Contact's). I do not need this folder, but when I right
click on it, I get message Item Cannot be deleted.

I only want to have 1 contact folder in Address Book
labeled Shared Contacts, but each of my 3 identies has
it's own contact folder underneath shared.

Anyway I can delete these?

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000 & 2002 from the Office
family for Windows PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting in one
of
these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...blic.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress
for OE 5.5x
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...ublic.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress
for OE 6.x

for the Macintosh version of OE
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...ess.mac&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;newsgroups

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups). The links under the newsgroup
references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to
post but it works for some people)

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:

Go to your address book. Highlight the shared folder and
then you have to go the the right window, highlight the
person you want out of the shared folder and then delete
it.
