Default Outlook Migration Problem

Hi all,

I bought a new machine, and as I had done in the past copied my outlook 2003
pst files from old machine to new, as I had done in the past. I messed
something up though.

My contacts all show up in my contact list, and my e-mail is all there. But,
when I go to send an e-mail, none of my contacts show up in the address
book. I have no e-mail addy's in the list, and when I click the drop down
for address books nothing shows.

How do I get 'em there?

Thanks

You must configure your Outlook Address Book if you change your information
store.
Enable your Contacts Folder as an email address book in its properties.

Thanks, that was the clue I needed. I found it was checked on already, but
by changing the name to "My Contacts" it now appears in the drop down list
as an address book and I can get to them.

Have a great day,

Robert
