I am unable to see one of my "contact" list in the address book. I am using
microsoft outlook in which I have two account. My personal hotmail account
and a work hotmail account. They both are outlook live account (premium
service). When I go to my address book, I only see my personal account
contact info, and not my work account contact info.

I was told that in order to be able to view a specific contact list in the
address book I would need to do the following:

1. In the folder list, right click "contacts"
2. Select "outlook address book"
3. select "Show this folder as an email address book"

The problem is that when I do this for my work account contact, when I right
click contacts, there is no tab titled "outlook address book", like there is
when I do this for other contacts folder.
I should be able to choose this, because at my work computer I have no
problem.

Any suggestion?

Thanks,
Gostal

I have configured around 15 to 20 .pst files all the .pst files having
Contacts when i goto contacts all the contacts are showing but when i
go address book nothing is showing please help me on this?

Why so many PST files?
Why not just use folders?
Have you enabled each Contact Folder that you want to see as a email address
book in its properties?
 
I have tried to enabled this particular contact folder as a email address
book in the "properties" section; however this option is not avaible with
this particular contact folder. The tab that has this option is missing??
This is not the case for my other contacts folder...

Thanks,

Gostal

State what is different about the Contacts Folder that has the Tab and the
one that doesn't.
I assume you are not the poster who has 15 different PST files, right?
What information store and transports are you using?
