On Vista 64, you need to drill down another level to get to the Mail applet; see http://turtleflock-ol2007.spaces.liv...E3D8!169.entry. You might as well cut to the chase and create a new mail profile.

You are a genius Sue! I officially worship you from now on. I did as your
link/blog suggested, found the 32-bit applications (mail in this case), created a new profile and after a little low level fiddle with setting up email accounts, rules and copying my emails across to the new profile I now have a superbly working system including the little bugger Contacts check box now ticked in Outlook Address Book in Contacts Properties. I am your humble servant and very grateful.

Well known bug. You can't repair the Outlook Address Book Service in Outlook
2007. You must create a new profile. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Touringcav" wrote in message ... I am having the same probelm with the below ... but I have vista 32 bit system.
