I'm not. (not this time around anyway). In the past I have done that. After
all, there is a "new contact" command in the address book.
QUESTION: So, in the future, when I want to add a contact I need to do so
through the contact button on the left side instead of within the address
book at the top, do I have that right?

I have what I think is that very folder....located on the left lower pane
between "tasks" and "calender". Is that right?

I have followed the above instructions and created a new address book.

Now I am told to "mark my contact folder for use with my address book"
I have done that. Now, I have a new address book listed under" Outlook
Address Book" in the address book drop- down.
How do I now get the info from the "Contacts" button (over on the left
between Tasks and Calender) into this new address book without re-typing all
of the information?
