If repairing Office does not fix it, you could try deleting the Outlook
address books from Outlook (NOT THE CONTACTS LISTS!) then re-adding them.
This should recreate the internal pointers between contacts and the address
book. I have crossposted this reply to the Outlook forum to see if anyone
there has any better ideas.

hi there

i'm using office 2007 on windows xp. Recently, it could have been
after an automatic update, when i try to print an envelope or label
from Word using my outlook address books, the books themselves are
empty. From outlook, all my contact information is available, but i
can not retrieve it from this dialog box.

i have multiple address books and the dialog box lists the names of
the address books, so it is connecting to outlook, it just won't list
any contacts and it's as if the books themselves are empty.

any help would be much appreciated.

thank you.
