Default Can not get Address book to open

Outlook 2003

I created a new profile pointed to my POP earthlink.net account, but the I
was still not able to access the address book.

I added the additional data file to create the error that ultimately lets me
access my address book. I need these address books more to set up search
folders.

Whether or not it's labeled a bug, the events following adding an
additiional data file results in a predictable error message which causes
Outlook 2003 to re-boot. After the re-boot I'm asked to associate a data file
to the aborted data file addition, and from there I can set it as the Outlook
address book, the unset it. The result of all of this is that the address
book is now accessible until I quit Outlook.

Doesn't sound like a bug.You did not post your Outlook version. You did not
state which mail transports are installed.
Since this is a new profile, why are you adding an additional data file
before you've even configured the first? Provide clearer steps to repro.
