5600 adjusting my Contacts folder
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

On my 5600 when I hit start, contacts, menu, filter, I get this list of standard filters.

1No filter
2Business
3Miscellaneous
4Personal

I want to do two things.
1. I want to get rid of all of those filters.
2. I notice if I make my own filters that they are in alphbetical order. I want to put them in a different order then alphabetical order. I tried thinking of different words to use so that my filter would be in the order that I wanted but that is a pain. Plus I would still have to work around all the standard filter words.
Any suggestions?

How do you make your own filters? Can you even rename the one that are standard (e.g. No Filter, Personal, etc.)

I could not rename the standard folders nor could I delete them. That is where I was hpoing someone here would know how, but I guess not.

To make your own folder I hooked my phone up to my usb cord and hot sinked it with outlook. From outlook I was able to create my own filters. Let me know if that works for you?

Were you able to delete the filters that come with the phone (No filter, Business, Miscellaneous, Personal) using outlook?
