I am entering data into our address book and trying to have the names subdivided into different catagories (lists) and they all go into collected address-help!

I am trying to create different lists in my collected addresses and when I created a 'new list' ie; supplier, contractor, the name supplier just went into alphabetical order under collected addresses. I show different lists on the left hand side bar, but when I create a contact and click and drag into lists nothing happens, and then when I try to add a contact directly into a list (after clicking on a list in side bar) the contact once again just goes into collected addresses. I need to subdivide my contacts into different lists like-Suppliers-services/contractors-organizations etc. Please help!

I think you are confusing lists and categories (address books). A list is simply a group of mailing addresses. It is used to send single emails to a specific group of people without having to type their names individually. It sounds like you just want a new category or address book. While selecting All Address Books (or Collected Addresses if you want the folder to appear there), go into FILE-NEW-ADDRESS BOOK and name it Suppliers or Customers. Now you can add your individual addresses to that folder. Hope that helps.
