Create a new folder in your mailbox. Make it a contact type folder .
Rightclick it, choose properties, access the "outlook address book" tab and
see if you can activate the "show folder as email addressbook" option there.
Copy all your contacts in it if it works...

hi,

I am running Office Outlook 2007 (part of enterprise edition) on Vista Business.

my contacts are not showing in my Address book but I can see them when I click contacts.

The help on the office website said that I needed to:
1.. right click the contact list that I wanted to add to my address book
2.. click properties
3.. outlook address bar tab
4.. tick the box for show this folder as an email address book
however that box is grayed out and I cannot choose it.

without this, I cannot email any of my contact nor can I add new addresses.

can some one please help
