Mail to contacts

When I start a new mail message and click to "To" button to fill in an
address, I don't get the names that are in my Contacts. (I get WAB
choices??) How can I show my contacts as the address choices? This is
usually not a big deal for repeat emails at least because of the excellent
autocomplete feature. I would like to bring this autocomplete list over to
my other computer and can't remember the file name I need to copy. What is
it?
Windows XP Pro and Office 2003.
Many thanks!
 
I followed those instructions and Outlook was set up exactly as it showed but
most of my contacts (even those with fax numbers and email addresses) are not
listed. Any other ideas?
Also, what about my other question regarding autocomplete? I searched this
forum and couldn't find anything to help me identify which office file
contains the autocomplete history so I can copy it to another computer.

You're there. I'm not. You're the only one who can examine your Folder
hierarchy to see which folders are being displayed in the Outlook Address
Book. Outlook will never display the contents of the WAB.
Importing the contents of your autocompletion cache requires a third party
utility. You can read more about it here:
