Work With the Contacts View

The Contacts View page provides an alphabetical directory in the left panel, where you can look up a last name, see a group, and narrow a list of contacts by alphabet.

For instructions to open groups, view rosters, use the search text box, manage groups, and add, edit, and delete contacts, see "Work With the Contacts List".

The Names Directory

A directory of contact names displays in the left panel at View. Names are listed in alphabetical order.

The list includes letters A through Z in addition to the default “A-Z” choice at the top, which causes all contacts in the current group to display.
