When I create a new e-mail and I click "To" to get the Select Names dialog
box, Outlook is not showing my other groups within the "Show Names From" box.
 
What do you mean by groups?
Outlook doesn't use groups.
 
In Outlook in my Contacts, I have created Groups or maybe your calling them
Folders, but they are groups. When you create a new e-mail, there is a drop
down that looks for names within these "Groups/Folders". Mine only shows
Outllook Address Book and Contacts. It does not show the others that I have
created. I cannot figure out why it doesn't. I have uninstalled and
reinstalled as well as do the "Repair Outlook" function.

Assuming these are Contact Folders, you simply enable them as email address
books in their properties. Then they will show up in the Outlook Address
Book.
