Default No contacts in drop down box

Hi,
Just installed Office 2007 Beta after my old PC died and everything
is working fine.... except when I go to send an emailin Outlook I click
on the 'to' button and the dialogue box opens for choosing an email
address but there is NOTHING there, no options for choosing any contacts!
I can look at all my contacts in business card view or any other view so
they are there, its just the new mail option then the 'to' button can't
see them.
Any ideas?

TIA Simon...

Are you saying there are no other names in the

'Show Names from the:' drop down box at the top right?

Same as all other versions. You must configure your Outlook Address Book
after you install Outlook.
