OutLook 2002 / Address Shortcut to Desktop

[drdoug26]

Hi all:

I give up, how do I make a short-cut from Outlook2002's 'CONTACTS' to my desktop. I used to be able to do this with 2000's contacts but not with 2002.

I can't use windows xps address book either cause when I enter an new address is will not transfer it to my favorite Contact manager, which is within Outlook 2002.

Thanks

Doug

Open outlook in a window so that you can see your desktop (not fullsize)

Rightclick and drag the folder contacts to your desktop and choose 'Copy here'

I'm sorry if i wasn't totally clear

Within outlook make sure you have the Folder list View (View/Folder List)

Now right-Click-drag the contacts folder (still from the folder list view) and drag this to your desktop

See attached picture...

Hope this clarify's it
