* I have outlook 2007
* Recently had to re install my data into a new computer and it has taken me
days to re set everything, particularly the defaults. All seems to be working
ok except for the following:-
* In folder list view I have 2 sets of Contacts (Contacts) & (Contacts VM) -
(Contacts VM) is where I have almost 5000 contacts and nil in (Contacts)
* I have the address book loaded correctly - When I use the TO I get my
contacts VM and can elect my contact to send mail.
* I have my own customised forms for my Contacts. I can view any of my
contacts via the contact lists in the correct format.
* When I use the NEW Contact though it does not open my customised form
Unless I use CHOOSE FORM which is a long way around.
* I think this is because of the two Contact folders.

Question - How do i delete an unwanted empty Contact Folder. When I right
click the Delete option is greyed out.

Question - How can I make my wanted CONTACTS VM the default folder. And to
open the customised new contact form.

I have taken so long over the re installation that my mind is going blank
and I don't remember how to make the defaults work.

Please help.
