I have a global address list, and then I also have MY contacts. I have
manually entered these in. First of all, the search does not work. If I click
in search box and type in the person's name, it finds nothing. I have already
been in the address book and looked at the options (look at this list first)
and it doesn't seem to be helping.

Secondly, when I am sending an e-mail, when I click on TO button, it only
brings up my Global Address List. Even if I click on the drop down and change
it.

Any ideas on this?

1) What search box? I can think of at least three that you might be referring to.

2) In Tools | E-mail Accounts, under the address lists section, do you have the Outlook Address Book? If not add it, and restart Outlook.

I was talking about the "Find a Contact" box from the standard toolbar.

But adding the Outlook address bar from the e-mail options was it.

Thank you so much.
