I recently reformatted my computer and after I used my 2003 Outlook Backup to
update my 2003 Outlook "My Contacts", it defaults to 'Contacts', but my email
and address information is in a second folder, "Address Book". How can I
delete the "Contacts" folder or how can I make "Address Book" the default?
When I right-click "Contacts", it's not highlighted as a delete option.
Thanks.
 
You can't delete a default folder. You must not have backed up and restored
your data correctly. All you needed to do was open your previous data file
in the new installation and everything would be where it belongs.

Are you saying that in the folder list above the folder "Contacts" is
another folder named "Address Book"? If so, Open "Address Book" and copy
its contents to "Contacts". Delete "Address Book". If this isn't what you
mean, then it would help if you were more precise in your description.
 
Thank you, Brian. As simple as the correction was, I had no clue. It worked
great. Thanks again for taking the time to offer an answer.
