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?

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.
