I recently transferred my address book from Outlook 2000 on a computer
running Windows Me to Outlook 2003 on a computer running Windows XP Home. The
address book's contents are all there when I navigate to Contacts but when I
click on the "To" button on the outgoing address name line of emails that I
am trying to generate, I get an error message instead of the opportunity to
type in a name to match up with email addresses in my address book. How do I
tell Outlook to use this address book?
The error message is: "The address list could not be displayed. The Contacts
folder associated with this address list could not be opened; it may have
been moved or deleted, or you do not have permissions. For information on how
to remove this folder from the Outlook Address Book, see Microsoft Office
Outlook Help."

Outlook has no "address book" to transfer. How did you transfer your data?
Whatever you did severed the connection between your Contacts data and the
Outlook Address Book Service. Reset it:
