Outlook Contacts - Converting User-defined Item fields to Folder fields

[richy240]

One of my clients made some changes to her company's contact lists, and
now there's a very peculiar problem that I cannot get solved. What was
once a User-defined Field at the Folder level, is now a User-defined
Field at the Item level. And I cannot figure out how to recover from
this.

It wouldn't be a problem if I could do an Advanced Search against these
fields, but you can only do a search against a Folder-level
User-defined field.

Any ideas? Please?

Just add the field to the folder, using the folder's Field Chooser.
