Default Outlook 2007 is freezing up on indexing contacts

Tried runnin scanpst.exe on the file on my memory card, then deleted the
Outlook 2007 entries and re-imported the "clean" file. It is still
re-indexing 13224 entries.

No. It's not normal. But it may be because you imported your Contacts. If
the reindexing does not finish, then try repairing your PST file and try
again.

I have Outlook 2003 at work and import my 611 contacts to my home systems
using Outlook 2007. Is there a better way to do this? I'm waiting hours
for
the re-indexing to finish. Is this normal? Thanks.

Have you waited until indexing has finished? Do that first. Only then can
we
figure out what other problems you have unleashed by importing Outlook
data.

When trying a search in Outlook 2007, I get the yellow banner that
Outlook
is
still indexing my contact files. But no progress occurs.
I imported an Outlook 2003 pst contact file to Outlook 2007: could that
be
causing the problem?
