Hi, I'm new here also. I'm afraid I can't help with your question, but I have 2 questions of my own.

1) how do you start a new thread (as you have done?)

2) in my database I have thousands of contacts. How can I add an alphabetical index tab along the right edge such as in Outlook for one-click access to different parts of the database?

Thanks and I hope you can help!

Gary

1) When browsing the list there is a New Thread button near the top on the Left. You seem to have done that here.

2) Look in the Code archives here for a phone index tab. Or try Microsoft.com for a template. I've seen them.

I split the thread out because it was out of context where it was.
