How do I find the categories that I created for contacts

[Guest]

I transferred my 8,000 contacts from an older version of Outlook to the
newest version when I bought a new computer. The layout for the contacts is
different and the only categories are the six colors. How do I pull up the
list of 50 categories, under which all of my contacts are filed and have that
list available each time I add a new contact.

How did you perform this "transfer"? What was the older version? What is
the newer version?

Perhaps you didn't transfer the category list. See this:
