I just got a new PC, and installed Vista Ultimate. I then installed Office
Pro 2003, and moved the .pst file from my old system (WIN-XP PRO and Office
Pro 2003). Every thing went fine, all my mail was there, rules were there,
and EVEN Contacts. But when I try to open the address book to address and
email, I get an error message telling me that the "Address list could not be
displayed, the COntacts folder associated with the address list could not be
opened. It may have been moved, deleted, or you do not have permission... see
help."

The directory location in VISTA is different than the location in XP, and I
wonder if that is the problem. If it is (or if it isn't) does anyone know
know the solution to this problem? Hundreds of addresses are at stake.
Please, and Thank you.
 
The Outlook Address Book service must always be reconfigured in a new
profile. Did you do so? The location of the PST file is irrelevant as long
as you have reset the Outlook Address Book service.
