Is there a way of seperating business and personal contacts in the contacts list so you can change the views to see one or the other?
Thanks

Using Categories in Contacts
Hi Lindsay
The only way to sepearate Business and Personal contacts is to use Categories.
In the Contact
1. Click the Category button
The Category dialog box appears
2. Click "Personal"
3. Click OK
Do this for all the Personal contacts.
To give multiple contacts the same category select all the required contacts / right click one of the selection and click Categories. Do steps 2 and 3
Once all the contacts have been categorized
In the Contacts view you need to define new Views. To do this:
4. Open View menu / Select Arrange By / Current View / Define Views
In the Custom View Organizer
5. Click New
6. name the new view as "Personal" and select "Card" as type
In the Customize View: Personal box
7. Click Filter
8. In the Filter window Click More Choices
9. Select the Personal category and click Ok until you are back on the Custom View Organizer
10. Personal appears highlighted in the list of views
11. Click Apply Now and only the contacts marked as Personal will appear on hte screen. The new View option "Personal" also appears in the current View selector.
You can do the same just for the Business ones.
Hope this helps
Carlos

| Outlook tip:
Remind yourself to reply to messages
Responding to email messages as they arrive can interrupt your work flow and lead to decreased productivity.
Why not set reminders to respond to messages that do not require an immediate reply so you can set aside a time to respond to messages all at once?
By right-clicking on a message, you can access a shortcut menu. Select Follow Up, and then click Add Reminder.
