Windows Live Mail Contacts issue

I am trying to organize and manage 4000+ contacts for my small business. I
recently switched from Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail (Windows 7 OS).
I am basically trying to ensure that every address in our address book is
categorized. What I want to be able to do is look at an individual contact
and see what categories they are listed under. Is this not possible in WLM?
It was in OE (I would click on the contact, then on the "Other" tab and the
groups that contact belonged to were listed under "Group Membership").
Thanks!
 
No, that can't be done in Windows Live Mail. Ironically, you can do the
opposite: right-click on the contact and it tells you which categories it
*doesn't* belong to (so you can elect to copy it to another category).

Incidentally, the newsgroup to which you posted is dedicated to
supporting the Windows Mail program. In the future, please post WLM
questions in the Windows Live Mail newsgroup:
