Default "Unable to choose recpoients"

Hi:

I have had this now happen twice within the last few days with Outlook
Express 6. When I tried to enter the addresses in a new email or forward I
get a message that says "Unable to choose recipients" and it will not allow
me to enter any addresses in the email. I have never had this happen before
until this week.

Anyone know the cause and corrective action that I can initiate to resolve
this issue?

Thanks,

ColTom2

"Enter" them how? Any chance you have duplicate entreis in your Address
Book?

When I click on "Create Mail" or "Forward" and then "To" I get this notice
"Unable to choose recipients". It will not launch my Addressbook where I can
select recipients and I get this notice.

Apologize for the misspelling of recipients in original email subject. Too
many thumbs....

What happens when you try to open the Address Book using the icno on the top
menu? Does it open and is the data in it correct?

Is MS Office and/or MS Outlook also installed?

Hi Pa Bear:

No MS Office or MS Outlook Express installed. Only MS Works Suite 7.0 and
Word 97 SR-1 installed. So far when I reboot the computer this problem that
I have never had before goes away.... until the next time.
