Re: Customizing Windows Address Book appearance

[Antonio Fernandez-Vicenti <afvaiv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, Walden... that's what I feared... but hoped had NOT to recognize...

Now, having accepted that as a fact... I'd like to add that I use 
Mozilla's Thunderbird for my mail, and have not been able to customize 
its contatcs list view appearance either!!! Tried to config its various 
.css files... No success either.

Anyway, coming back to my original question, the reason I was trying to 
customize Windows .wab is: my Nokia mobile will synchronize its contacts 
list with that from Windows, not with Thunderbird...

Any suggestions? Thanks,
