Are you storing your Contact in the Contacts folder or in a Personal Address
Book (.pab) file?

Ehm, you didn't anser my question; you're answer can still go either way. If
the same contacts show up in your Address Book as in your Contacts folder
you are not using a pab.

Robert,

Sorry for the confusion and the delay getting back, I am using the contact
folder.
