I am using Outlook 2003 SP! with Windows XP. My Contacts Index Bar is no
longer visible when I select the Address Card category. It is visible when I
select the Detailed Address Card category.
I have tried "Detect and Repair", read everything I can find in Help and on
MS web site, but I cannot find how to display this Contacts Index Bar again.
(This is the alphabet running vertically down the right-hand side of my
Contacts).
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
 
G'Day Sir Galahad,

The only time this happened to me, was when I had so few
Contacts, the Index wasn't needed.

Russ, thank you. I had tried finding the answer by choosing View, but I didn't go far enough because I really didn't know what I was looking for.

After I read your reply, I choose Views, Arrange By, Current Views, Define
Views. Not knowing what else to do, I chose Address Cards and Reset. It
worked!
Thank you again. I have over 500 Address Cards and locating one without the
Contact Index Bar was a real pain!
 
The easier path to it is Customize Current View... > Reset Current view
