how to add email address to different contacts lists

[Guest]

Hi,
I have a problem with adding email address to my contact list in office 2003. I created a personal address book (called personal) and contacts (work contacts) that is default as you first lauched outlook. I also changed the way to show what address list as i click on TO button, and where i want to save the new email address. Let's say i set work contacts as default where i want to store email address. Now, i have a new email that is personal and i want to save the person's email address to my personal address book but it kept saving to my work contacts. My question is: Is there a way to pop up a message that says what contacts list do you want to save email address to? (if you have more than one contacts lists). Your help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Your terms are confusing. Define what you mean by "contact list." Outlook
does not use address books so did you actually create?
Outlook uses Contact Folders, not address books. You can display any Contact
Folder you want in the Outlook Address Book view by enabling the folder as
an email address book in its properties.
