Adding an address to a Contact List

  • Follow


The client is using Outlook 2003 SP2.
I know you can click on an email address in an email and add it as a contact 
to my main Contacts list.
Is there a way to do the same task but add it to my other Contact Lists 
already setup as an addressbook...?

Thanks,   Tom...

no, but you can use the move to folder command on the file menu instead
of save

The Addressbook in Outlook is merely a view of your Contacts list - so if 
you add an address to your Contacts list - Hey Presto! It appears in the 
Addressbook view...

So as the Addressbook in Outlook is a VIEW of the CONTACTS folder, precisely 
where are you suggesting the OP move it TO?

I think you've misread the original post.  The poster has multiple contacts 
folders, all enabled as address books.  He want to right-click the address and 
choose "Add to Outlook Contacts" but have the contact get added to a 
non-default contacts folder.  The Move to Folder method allows that.
