OK,
a. which versions of Word/Outlook/Windows?
b. What folders do you actually see?
c. In Outlook, are your contacts actually in the Contacts folder (that may
sound daft, but they aren't necessarily in that one) or another folder?
d. Whichever folder it is, can you select the folder (e.g. in the
"Navigation Pane"), right-click and select Properties, then "Outlook Address
Book", then ensure that "Show this folder as an e-mail address book" is
checked.

a - 2003 SP2
b - I see all the folders, just not all the contacts in the folders
c - yes, they are in Contacts folder
d - its checked alright
The only contacts I'm having an isue with are those that originated in
Salesforce.com and were then synched up (created) in Outlook.

My guess (though I do not know Outlook very well):
a. The Address book only shows entries that have an "e-mail address". But
there are different types of e-mail address in Outlook - an ordinary e-mail
address shows up as type SMTP and a FAX e-mail address shows up as type FAX
b. Outlook creates FAX type e-mail addresses when you enter an address in a
Fax number field in Outllok contacts
c. when you sync your data with Salesforce, it's possible that the contacts
created do not have these fax addresses set up.
I would guess that if you open one of the contacts that does not appear in
the list, and save it (or perhaps, make a change to it and save it) Outlook
will probably set up the fax address and the item will appear in the list.
However, even if that works, I don't know whether there is an easy way to
update all the affected records, other than to write a macro in Outlook to
do it. You may find out more in an Outllook group.

My guess is that my contacts from Salesforce, when brought across to Outlook,
will populate the Contacts folder in Outlook, but that there is a separate
process to go through (which I cannot find anywhere) to have those updates
matriculte to the Address Book used in the fax wizard.
