Using Vista and Office 2007. No Address Books show in the email list. When I
try to use Contacts-Properties-Outlook Address Book to add, the check box is
grayed out.

DId you migrate your Outlook configuration from another machine using Vista's transfer tool? If so, you'll need to create a new mail profile, using the Mail applet in Control Panel. After you create the initial profile, modify it to include the Outlook .pst file that you copied from the old machine and make that old file the default information store.
