I had to delete a bunch of my contacts and re enter them. Got that finished
and wanted to make some groups. When I tried to create a new group in the
address book in the folder it posted as contact person and I want it by
company. Where you enter the contact info the default is set for company and
in that folder it saved by company. How can I change how it saved for the
address book? There aren't any instructions I could find in help
 
Outlook version???

State your Outlook version. Outlook does not use groups, Outlook Express
does.

I'm using Outlook 2000. What has happenec - I have 200 contacts totally - I
had to split them between Christian and Non Christian then in each of these 2
they get broken down into what project they pertain to (we have 3 projects on
the go) so I figured if I stored them and made a group for each of the
projects it would be better than having a copy in each of the 3 project
folders and all I would have to do would keep them seperate as Christian and
Non? The instructions said I could make a group up so that is what I tried
to do (without success) I don't use outlook for my e-mails. This is purely
for a data base of contact companies.
