I am having trouble viewing the Contact list as an an address book.

This was previously in place and very valuable.

I have followed the previous listings on this. The contact list appears to
be in place but is not being made available in the Select Names window when
finding "To" names. It appears to have become disconnected.

The "Show this file" on the OAB tab is feint i.e. not available to be
checked.

Am I missing something?

You're missing the Outlook ADdress Book service in your mail profile. This
question is asked and answered in this very group multiple times each week.
Google Groups or the Microsoft Knowledgebase is your friend.

The system is set up ok and I can view the additional contacts I have
created in various folders. However I cannot seem to get the "Show this
folder" check box to become available in the OAB tab.

This was working fine up to a few days ago.

It was set up by someone else.

I have checked the Mail profile and all this appears to be right and our
internal office names appear fine. It's my additions that are being held off.

I'm sure this may seem straightforward to regular users but please bear with
new users.

Thanks

No where in the above is any indication you followed the steps in the
article I cited.
