Thought so.
Never import Outlook data unless you like this kind of problem. You had no
need to import. You weren't trying to convert another file format.
I trust you still have a backup of your data? Open it and copy your Contacts
from it so you won't lose data like the File As... field.

The only file I have is his inbox.pst. Since it is a 2000 version pst,
Outlook 2003 wont let me just copy his into the directory. When I did
that it said it wasn't compatible. So I guess my question is how do I
get access to the contacts without doing the import?

Also, we didn't lose any of the Contact "File as" field data when we
imported. The only problem is trying to create a new contact.

Thanks for your help,
