When I open a new or existing contact record, the categories field no longer
appears in the lower right hand corner.

I have done detect and repair, restarted and the field still remains missing.

What do I need to do to repair it so the field returns?

Did you try making the window larger?

I am experiencing the same problem with Outlook 2007. There is no category
box in the lower right hand corner. What can I do?

See the box to check?

No, I do not see the box for categories. Any other suggestions?

I thought you were looking for the box to link Contacts.
Categories are in the Ribbon in Outlook 2007. You can't miss it. It's huge.
