MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / August 2007Contacts are missing when I click the To, Cc, or Bcc buttons
I am setting up my new laptop and cannot get my contacts to show when creating a new e-mail message in Outlook. I am using Vista Ultimate (64 bit) and MS Office 2007. I used the file transfer Wizard to move the files over (via USB cable), but gathered from other posts that this was not the best way. It is done, however. I tried to follow the procedures outlined in the Help File document with the above heading but on step #1 of Reset Outlook Address Book settings the “Remove” option is grayed out and I cannot proceed. What can I do to fix this? Jack If you go into the properties of the Contacts folder and then click the Outlook Address Book tab, do you have the option of checking the box to enable that folder as an Outlook Address Book?

I have managed to move everything from my old PST file to the new except calendar items. Any way to "select all" and move them over?
