Default Blank rows in Address Book

By the way, the solution has nothing to do with the "File As" field
being blank which was Russ Valentine's big contribution to the

Well, I said that.

There seems to be a bug where even if your contact entry
has a legit 'Full Name', 'File as' and 'Email...' data it will show
up as blank in the Address Book. I went through all of the contacts
and added a bogus phone number (555-555-5555) to each contact that
did not have one and this is what fixed the issue. So if you
consider no phone number an 'ill-defined entry' then I guess you
could say that Brian's advise at
http://www.helpfeeds.com/showthread.php?t=24939 helped.


Most likely just modifying any field and resaving the contact (for example,
changing a character in the name to the same character) would have helped.
I don't think the presence or absence of a phone number specifically is the
issue.
