How to change a Catagories name in OUTLOOK CONTACT?

[Guest]

After I named a Catagories group I want to use another name.
I can do it one by one but when that Catagory has over 100 entries
it becomes cumbersome.

I have described a reasonable procedure for making batch changes in a
field that works with any item type in Outlook. I described for a
particular application in Contacts.

Here is a reference. I hope that you can use it to find the procedure.

If this reference is not effective, search for ProfDD in
microsoft.public.outlook.contacts. The particular case had to do with
the "Other Phone Number" field in a 2,000 item contact folder.

If you can't find it, get back it me and I will write up a more general
description or cut-and-paste it into a response.

Depends on whether you want to add or change the category or add one.
