Where are they?
 

I had to start fresh with a new hard drive and reinstalled Outlook. I
finally got the correct file imported, but now the contacts cannot be found
from within an email. All the contacts are there, but just not recognizeable
in the "To" field of the email windown. HELP! :-)

Where are they?
 

Importing is never the correct way to transfer Outlook data. It's hard to
know how much damage was done in your doing so done without your providing
any details. You didn't even bother to post your Outlook versions. I would
start by configuring your Outlook Address Book correctly. We'd tell you how,
but without knowing your Outlook version, it's not possible to do so. Since
we post that information almost every day, find a post that matches your
version and read it.

Hey,

I have the same problem - had a harware failure but i have the intact
\Application Data\Microsoft\ folder with all .pst files.

I imported the .pst files however, i cant my address book.

- I have now installed Office 2007 Pro.

Thanks. Much appreciated.
