I have a new Outlook add-in for managing sales opportunities. When it is
installed it looks at the Outlook 2003 contacts folder and imports all
contacts that are not marked Private. None of my contacts are marked
private, so it imported a huge number of contacts that I did not want in
this application.

Is there a way to select a range of contacts and mark them as private in a
single operation? This would save a tremendous amount of time as I only
need to add my client contacts to this program, not my many other contacts
in various categories. Any help would be appreciated.

In the Contacts folder, change to the Phone List view (so that you have a
table) then Group by Private - use the Group By box (on the advanced
toolbar) and drag the column header "private" into the Group By box.

Put one person in the Private group, then you can select as many as you
want and drag them into the Private group.
