When you add a contact to your Address Book, you can assign the contact to one or more groups (such as Family, Friends, or Christmas List). Grouping contact information is useful if, for example, you want to print a set of mailing labels for family members. You can use the groups that Address Book provides, or create up to 100 new ones. You can also rename groups.
If you use Quicken Business & Personal, the Address Book provides default Customer and Vendor groups. When you add a contact to the Customer or Vendor List, it's added to the appropriate group.
