MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / March 2006Unspecified Error when trying to access my address book in MS Word
I am getting the error message: Login failed. You must logon to Microsoft Exchange to access your address book. Error code: "Unspecified error." when trying to access my address book in Microsoft Word at work. We do not have Exchange and it is a brand new computer. IBM NetVista using Microsoft XP Professional. Any ideas? Jeff No wonder you're failing to login to Exchange if you don't have Exchange installed! Start up Outlook and configure your address book properly, so Word can use it. >I am getting the error message: Login failed. You must logon to Microsoft > Exchange to access your address book.

The contacts property must be set to be used as such and Outlook must be the default e-mail application - unbless you have Microsoft Exchange, which is an expensive corporate messaging system.
