I'm on an Exchange email server with my company, so the default address book
is the Exchange one, and it just works. That's fine most of the time.

But - I have added a number of contacts to my Contacts folder - I can see
them when I use the Contacts tab. But when I create a new mail message,
then
click the 'To' button, and use the drop-down in the 'Show Names from the'
box - Contacts is not offered as one of the available sources.

Further - if I try to generate a 'new message to contact' from within the
Contacts folder, I get an error message.

Can anyone suggest a solution please? I'm working with Outlook 2003
Thanks,
Jeff
