Filtering by Contact Group Name yields no results … grrrrr.Īdd the ‘Contact Group Name’ to the results column in Advanced Find reveals the problem. However, that underestimates Microsoft’s determination to make this simple need as difficult as possible. You’d think that filtering to show entries with a Contact Group Name would work.
How to find Contact Groupsīuried deep in the Outlook search criteria is a tempting but misleading option Contact Group Name field. In this example, ‘Fictional Characters’ is the Contact Group but there’s nothing in the list to make that clear. But nothing for Groups.Įven the Outlook 2016 contact list itself has nothing to show a Contact Group as a different type of entry. The ‘More’ pull down list has many other contact criteria name, address, phone etc. Look along the Search tab for Contacts and there’s many options but not all. You can’t … amazingly there’s no direct or easy way to separate out the two types of contacts: individual or groups. How can you filter the Outlook contacts list to show just the Contact Groups or not?
