New to Outlook - Multiple Contacts files ?
Hi, I'm brand new to Outlook. I've been using Outlook Express for my email for quite a few years, and a Day-Timer Organizer pgm for basic calendar stuff. I just started a sales job a couple of days a week - I'd like to keep my sales contacts in Outlook and Synch them to my BlackBerry (which I also just got 2 weeks ago - a lot to learn there also...). I'd like to also move my Outlook Express contacts to Outlook, but keep the personal and business stuff separate. I guess I should stop using Outlook Express, and move to Outlook to take advantages of its features. Is there a fairly easy way to keep the personal & business stuff separate ? Thanks in advance for any help. Rich http://mr-shine.com -- mrshine http://forums.slipstick.com

Sure. You need multiple pst files and rules to move personal mail to the
personal PST. You can make Contacts folders for your personal contacts. File, New, Outlook Data file to add a new pst. File, New, folder to add a new folder. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: "mrshine" mrshine.418gmy@invalid wrote in message news:mrshine.418gmy@invalid...

Please excuse me for jumping in here (I am new to this so,let me know if this is improper protocol), but I have a similar issue; although for different purposes. I, too, would like either separate pst file or additiona; Contact list but I would like to somehow link? them to each other so that when I update a contact in one list; it will update the same contact in another list? Is this possible. Actually, in my case, I want a group of Contacts to export to my BlackBerry without exporting ALL my Contacts. I have made a Contact group for my BlackBerry but it is cumbersome when making a change to a Contact. With my limited knowledge, it seems to me that if I change, say a phone number in Contact group A, I would also have to update it manually in Contact group B. Somehow linking the two would be handy. Any thoughts? Thanks, Ken
