Hi Tony,
Sorry, Tony. Windows Mail does not have that feature anymore. Contacts open in a separate explorer window now.
You might consider switching to Window Live Mail Beta (WLM) instead. It handles Contacts better.
WLM supports Pop3, IMAP, HTTP website (EX: Hotmail) email, and is a lot more stable. Plus, WLM has a separate Inbox for each account. WLM will automatically import Windows Mail messages, accounts, and settings into it. Contacts will have to be manually imported. (Tools, Contacts, File, Import, Address book for current Windows User.)
