To fix it, go to Tools | E-mail accounts, select "View or change existing directories or address books", and click Next. If you don't see the OAB in the Directories and Address Books list, click the Back button, then select "Add a new directory or address book", then "Additional Address Books", and add the OAB. Then keep clicking Back until you get back to the first dialog box, and go back to the Directories and Address Books list as you did earlier. Once the OAB appears in the list, select it and then click Change to make sure the Contacts folder(s) you want to display are listed. If any of them aren't listed, you'll need to enable those Contacts folders as Outlook Address Books by right clicking the folder, selecting Properties, clicking the Outlook Address Book tab, and checking the "Show this folder as an E-mail address book" box. Make sure you restart Outlook after making these changes. -- Jocelyn Fiorello MVP - Outlook *** Messages sent to my e-mail address will NOT be answered -- please reply only to the newsgroup to preserve the message thread. *** "Andrew Chalk" wrote: I just installed Outlook 2003 on a new machine and chnaged the data store from the default to a saved Personal Folders file from an old machine with O2003. The messages, calendar, and contacts are all there but when I create mail none of the contacts appear in the available list of names. In fact, the list of names is empty. Presumably I have to tell Outlook to use my Contacts folder when sending e-mail. How do I do this? Many thanks. |
