Hi Raul,
Thank you for your information on the Hotfix its definitely fixed my problem
with the "object reference" problem as described above. Well done. I suppose
that it doesn't matter how all this started in the first place, but it has
been very time consuming to get over. I had a suspicion that Norton AV 2006
turned off Business contact Manager in my version of Office 2003 Small
Business Edition.
Thanks
JohnR
