Shall we assume you do not use and LDAP? If not, remove it and add the
Outlook Address Book.
Go to Tools | E-mail accounts, select "View or change existing directories
or address books", and click OK. If you see LDAP, remove it. 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.

Just upgraded to Outlook 2003. When I try to type a new message and click
on "To:" to address, I get "Cannot contact LDAP Directory server (81)"
message. Any suggestions?
