MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / August 2004Address book - contacts problem
I just upgraded my Outlook 2000 to the XP OS, and now my Address book doesn't seem to find my Contacts folder from time to time. It can take ages which is frutstrating. I did move the PST file to a backup directory. Is that the problem and if so is this fixable? Thanks in advance. State which mail support mode you are using. Line 2 of Help | About if you don't know.

I don't log onto an Exchange Server. I have gone through your other posts but can't figure it out. Thanks. >-----Original Message----- >State which mail support mode you are using.

If you are in "Internet Mail Only" mode, there is not much we can do to repair the Outlook Address Book. IMO does not use the Outlook Address Book and therefore has no option for the repair thereof. You are way overdue for an upgrade. Provide more information. I can think of no scenario in which the Outlook Address Book would function "from time to time." That would be completely inexplicable.

Internet Mail Only Security Update Russ. I apolgise as I thought that was implied by my earlier post. Thanks for the advice and yes it is strange but I'll figure something out.

Since IMO does not use the Outlook Address Book, the only thing you can try is to try to repair the Windows Address Book. This is done in Outlook Express. Rename WAB32.DLL. Reinstall Outlook Express. See if sharing is enabled in Tools > Options of the WAB. SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Internet Mail Only Security Update Russ.

Great thanks again Russ. >-----Original Message----- >Since IMO does not use the Outlook Address Book, the only thing you can try [quoted text clipped - 54 lines] > >.
