First off, you can remove the Personal Address Book from your profile since
it's obsolete now and has been for a while. Remove it he Control Panel Mail applet Email Accounts View/Change existing directories / address books Click Next Remove it should make the Outlook Address Book the default since it should be the only one left "Orcas2369" wrote in message ...

Well, you can try adding the Outlook Address Book service in the same place
I mentioned about removing the other service. "Orcas2369" wrote in message ... There are NO address boks listed there. There is also no addresses available in teh "To" button in a new mail message. How do I get my address book in the correct location? |

Ok. I did that. Now the Outlook Address Bok appears but it is empty. How do I
get my addresses to show? They are visible in 'contacts'.

Right click on the Contacts folder, choose Properties, go to the Outlook
Address Book tab and make sure the "Show this folder as an email address book" box is checked. "Orcas2369" wrote in message ... Ok. I did that. Now the Outlook Address Bok appears but it is empty. How do I get my addresses to show? They are visible in 'contacts'. |

Ok -that worked. Thanks. I still have a problem however. When I imported the
Outlook Data file from the laptop everything was there except for the subfolders in my contacts. I have 12 subfolders in contacts that appear in my laptop. I copied the Outlook data file from the laptop to the desktop after I formated that disc on the desktop.Curious that the rest of the data is there.

Do you still have the PST file from the laptop? If so, open it using the
File menu Open Outlook Data File command and poke around it to see where all your data may be. Then drag/drop what you need from one to the other. "Orcas2369" wrote in message ...
