With the new Outlook all of my Contacts are gone or at least still in an
older file (I hope). None of my extensive contacts moved over during the
upgrade to Office2007.

If you know of a fix I'm all ears I've tried everything with no luck.

Aloha Shain,

Search your hard drive for *.pst files; make sure you have the search looking
in hidden and system folders too. You do have a backup of your data, right?

:-)

I should have made myself clearer and well checked a little more as to
exactly what I was talking about. I did pull in some of my older addresses
from my backed up pst files.

What I was actually referring to after a little more investigation is that
with the old Outlook I was able to sync up with my MSN online address book
and now with 07 it doesn't seem to find it or just can't sync to it. I'm
having to type in all my addresses again that are already in my MSN account.

I think that's a little clearer.
