Can't add new contacts

[Guest]

I'd like to add some new contacts, but I don't see a button 'new contact'.
Who can help me?
Thank you!

Start a new mail message, click on the "To" button to find the "Add
Contacts" button.

Thank you so much!

But why do all help-files say and show there should be a 'new
contact'-button in the contact list?

Luc,
In Windows Mail, click on the 'Contacts' Icon in the menu bar.
Then click on 'New Contact' in that menu bar.

Actually I assume you have already been there and found no 'New Contact' in
the menu bar. That may be because the Folder Type has gotten messed up and
is no longer 'contacts'.

Having the Contacts folder open, click Organize, then properties. Customize
tab.
Under What kind of folder do you want select 'Contacts' from the drop down
list.
Now you will have the 'New Contact' button.

thank you!!
This is what I've really been looking for, because now I can also organize
my contacts in groups!!

Luc,

Mine type keeps getting set to 'all' which is probably what yours was set
to. I have no idea why it gets changed.

Thank You very much, the folder type was not set to contacts like you said, I
did what you said to do and now every thing works right again.
