Windows mail contacts has music headers on bar

Somehow my windows mail program has the wrong menu bar. Instead of showing
name, phone number, etc it shows ARTISTS, ALBUM, GENRE, etc.

Other accounts on this computer have the proper formats.

What can I do to get the proper "headers" so I can make a contact group, etc.

Thanks

Re: Windows mail contacts has music headers on bar

Right-click the Contacts folder, and choose Properties. On the Customize
tab, under "Use this folder type as a template", choose Contacts from the
pull-down menu (Apply, OK).

If you enable the Preview Pane in your Contacts folder, it will give the
Summary info for the contact when you select a particular contact (without
opening the file). To enable the Preview, open the Contacts folder, and on
the taskbar, choose Organize > Layout > Preview Pane.
