Missing Address Book????

I am using Outlook 2003. I just had to reformat my hard drive and
load all my software and data files from my backup.

My Outlook program seems to be working just fine, but with ONE
EXCEPTION. When I just tried to write an new email, when I click on
the "TO" button, my address book is not there. I just check MY
CONTACTS, and all the data seems ok - names and email addresses plus
all other stuff.

Can anyone help me get my address book back so I can use it to write
new emails?

Thanks in advance for any help.
 
If you have Contacts in the Contacts folder but they are not accessible when
you click on the To button, check these settings:

Make sure the Contact folder is enabled as an email address book. Right
click the Contacts folder, choose Properties then Outlook Address Book. Is
the box to enable as email address book is checked?

If this is grayed out...

Go to Tools | Email Accounts, choose View or change existing directories or
address book. Is the Outlook Address Book present? If it isn't listed, add
it and close and restart Outlook. If it is listed, then remove it and close
then restart Outlook and repeat these steps to add it.
