When I open an Address Book the display shows columns I don't want & omits columns that I do want. How do I edit the display - remove the columns I don't want & display the columns I do want?

I thought you'd given up on Thunderbird? ;-)

Look for this tiny button at top right. It will allow you to select and deselect columns. You can drag the column header buttons left and right, and you can drag their sides to alter widths.

Zenos - that was a fast reply! Yes I gave up on TB but after problems with my Web based mail server, I'm trying TB again. This time I promise myself not to screw things up by attempting to move the Profile to another location. I've already done what you suggest in your reply. That 'tiny button' sure is tiny, & I would never have found it & used it without your reply. Now my Address Book display is much better & shows what I want. Thanks very much!
