INTRODUCTION

To organize your contacts, you can assign a category, such as Personal, Business, and so on, to each contact. You can then sort your contacts by category (see the task "Changing the Contacts View" later in this chapter to learn how).

TIP

Assigning Multiple Categories

You can assign more than one category to a single contact. To do so, simply click any of the applicable category check boxes to select them.
