Default Missing contacts

I have the same problem, but with outlook express. Update KB911567 messed up
my contacts. If you go to this link it explains things better as to the
problem with Outlook Express. I am sure if it happened on OE6, then Outlook
2003 is right up there.

Outlook.. We're on an Exchange server, are the contact folders stored
on the server or the local machine? Can someone tell where exactly I
might look to possibly find the folder?????Thanx!


Every delivery location MUST have a Contacts folder. If your delivery
location is the Exchange mailbox, it will be there. If it's a PST, it will
be in the PST, unless the PST has been damaged somehow. Try starting
Outlook once with the /resetfolders command line switch. Use the Folder
List view to look for the folder to make sure it's not being hidden by a
non-Contact view.

This last assumption has no basis in fact, since the two programs use
completely different mechanisms for storing and accessing contacts.
