MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / June 2006outlook contacts
my contacts became corrupted with about 45k of blank contacts. i got frustrated with it and deleted the whole thing now i can't get anything to work in the contacts, including being able to access my contacts from winword When you say that you "deleted the whole thing".... what did you delete? Did you remove the Contacts folder somehow? If so, you might need to do a /resetfolders as described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/182112/en-us > my contacts became corrupted with about 45k of blank contacts. > i got frustrated with it and deleted the whole thing now i can't get > anything to work in the contacts, including being able to access my > contacts > from winword i'm running windows xp and i still have a mess on my hands. although i have contacts in under conacts when i try to access the address book they are not there also if i try to access contacts from winword i can't get to my contacts > When you say that you "deleted the whole thing".... what did you delete?

Then add it back in.  SignatureBrian Tillman |
