Outlook Express contacts folders available in Outlook?

[Kevin Geil]

Hi, I'm trying to work with someone who was managing hundreds of contacts in
outlook express in the windows address book. She has contacts divided into
folders so that when she is composing and clicks the To: button, she can
browse her contacts in folders and choose individual recipients from there.
This differs from using contact groups in that the email goes only to
selected members of the group, and not the entire groups.

I have learned that this is not supported in Windows
mail/windows contacts. My question is, if she upgrades to Outlook 2007,
will
she be able to do this? I know that someone suggested to Millie above
that contacts categories will work for a similar problem. Is this the way
to go?

If this is possible, is Outlook aveilable for download, or is it only
available on CD?

Thanks for the help,

You can indeed work with multiple Contact folders in Outlook although I
prefer a single one and use categories instead.
