Post is too vague. You probably know what you mean by "I have 5 lists" but
none of us could. Reinstalling Outlook never touches your data (nor does it
ever solve anything). State what else you did and why.

I had to re-install Outlook 2003 on my computer and now I cannot see my
main
contacts list. I have five lists and the main one is empty. I hav3e old
copies of the Outlook.pst file but none of them show the addresses in the
contacts list, jus all of the other lists. By the way, I store my
outlook.pst
file in My documents which is on a hard drive different from the operating
system and office software.
Can anyone tell me how to recover just the address book contacts without
also importing the old e-mail messages?

Thank you
