Can't access contacts

I just upgraded from Outlook 2000 to 2003. In the old outlook, I could click
on "New" to start a fresh outgoing email window and then click on "TO" to get
the contacts list to pop up for me to select from. Now, I can't get the 2003
version to let me access my contacts list this way. It's very clumsy to have
to go to "contacts" and open up the list, then I have to right click on the
name of the person I want to send an email to, and click "new message to
contact". Then it pops up with that persons name ready to go and I can write
my email.

I tried to click on the address book icon on the standard tool bar, then
options, and when I want to type in "contacts" in the "show this address
first" box, it won't let me enter anything.

Is there some way to link my contacts list to my new email window right when
it comes up?
