Why is the Company field blank?

In Outlook 2007 and in All Contact Items window. I then do a search for a
contact name or a company name. The results do appear but the column
"Company" does not have any content despite this field being filled in each
contact.

Is this a known bug?

Is there a workaround?

It's a new one to me... does it happen if you reset the view? The table
views I tested seem to work ok but there is definitely weirdness with
searches in the new business card view though - some fail until I open and
resave a contact from the company I'm searching for, then it finds that
contact (and others) with the keyword in the company name or email field.
 
Diane,

Sorry I thought that I had already replied but perhaps I did reply but with
no content!

I reset the search results view to default. The company field is stil
present but all rows are blank for found contacts. To get the company
field filled (in the search results window) I need to separately edit and
save each contact. This is not a satisfactory situation. Surely there
must be a Microsoft fix for this?

Diane,

I have found a solution.....search options ....instant search
pane.....select "only the currently selected folder"

Why this should have fixed it I do not know.
