I have Microsoft office 07. As soon as I loaded it I cannot add any new
contacts to my address book. All of my old contacts are intact. I cannot
even alter one that is already there. I cannot find anything wrong but I get
this error message whenever I try to add or modify a contact. This message
comes up when I try to save the contact. "Could not complete the operation.
One or more parameter valuse are not valid"

Thanks,

Ray

You never use the address book view to enter or modify data in any version
of Outlook. You use the Contacts Folder for that.

Russ-I have a somewhat related question. I just loaded my blackbery 4.0
softward onto my new notebook with MS Outlook 07. It is allowing me to sync
my calender, but when I try to configure to sync my contacts, I get a message
that reads..."The file or database name associated with MS Outlook is
missing, invalid, or points to a file of zero length." Any ideas?

Just one. Sync issues are never Outlook issues. Blackberry owes you the
explanation.

Did you check with Blackberry to make sure V4.0 is compatible with Outlook
2007?
