I have a large number of contacts which I only want to use very rarely but I
don't want to delete them, archive them or have to reimport them to use
them.
Normally I would just leave them alone but its getting to be a bit of a pain
wading through them all.

Is there a way I can put them in a catergory called 'archive' or something
similar and then exclude them from the displayed lists?

I assume I can make a custom display list without the 'archive' category in
it but I can't find out how. Most of the display options allow you to fiddle
with fields but not categories. If I display 'grouped by categories' I lose
my a-z listing of all my non-archived contacts because every group is
displayed seperately.

Help!
 
Sure. Select them all, right-click, choose Categories, then apply the
Archive category. Next modify the view to filter out any items with that
category -- View | Current View | Customize Current View | FIlter.
