Outlook Address book

[Guest]

I am using Outlook 2002 and windows xp. I was getting errors and had to re
install office. After that I had lost all e-mails. I was able tp locate the
pst file and have recovered all e-mail and contacts. oddly, though, my
address book is empty. Is there a way to "transfer" the data from contacts to
address book?

Nothing to "transfer." You just neglected to configure the Outlook Address
Book.

Ok much thanks for the help. While the process in the article you sent me
to did not quite work <s>. I was able to dope it out once I knew what I was
looking for. FYI, what happened is when I went to file, folder there was no
contacts folder listed. I was able, however, to look at properties by right
clicking on contacts on the main page and I then found the correct tab and
was able to check the "show this folder as an e-mail address book" tab
because I had read about it in the article.
Anyway, thanks again, I am back in business.

Anytime you change your PST file you must reset the Outlook Address Book.
The steps in the article do work.
