I am using TLB 3.26 and XP Pro SP2.......but the address book doesn't behave like other "Menus" in TLB.........It is not clear to me how to create a GROUP........................If I right click on a menu item, it doesn't give me a "new menu" selection??

If I right click on the address book, and select new Menu, the menu is created ob the TLB and NOT the address book?

Am I over looking something?

When you create a contact you put it in a category, then you keep on putting other contacts in this category and you have your group

There are two ways:
1) In the Properties of AB set Grouping by field "category" and you get groups.
2) The second way create menu an add some AB plugins there.

Okay I see, it's basically a two step process................

I wasn't displaying by category....................once I did that, all seems okay.........

Great little add-in...............

Thank you

Ah, now I see how this works, but it's a little bit confusing... I had set the option group by field to "Category", but nothing seemed to happen... only now I discovered I also had to set the grouping type to "Group by field".

This could be easily solved by disabling the "Group by field" option when it's not the selected "Grouping type"... Then it's obvious that this option has no effect...
