Office 2003...I cannot get Contacts into my drop down menu on the "Show names
from the" area.  I read the other postings and clicked on the Contacts folder
properties and it seems my area to enable is greyed out. Any ideas?

If the "Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book" check box is grayed out,
you need to add the Outlook Address Book sevice to your profile.  Click
Tools>E-mail Accounts>Add a new directory or address book>Next.  Select
Additional Address Books and click Next.  Select Outlook Address Book and
click Next, then Finish.  You may need to stop and restart Outlook.  You
should then be able to check the "Show this folder..." box.
