Member Since: March 2004 Posts: 0 Send Message	I have too many pages of contacts and would like to delete those where we had no mutual rellies but does anyone know if I delete them will it still show I have contacted them previously because I would hate to bother anyone a second time without realising it? Thanks, Jennie

	Yes....the YES by their name remains even after you have deleted the contact. I have hardly any contacts at all (having done what you want to do) and when the hot matches come in or I search a name, or whatever, I see hundreds (dozens!) of Yeses by peeps names. Merry
