Odd. Since this used to work, can you think of any changes you made to your
configuration? For example, is Outlook your default mail program and your
default Contacts Manager for your OS?

Yes I do, its just that clicking on any of the available contacts fails to
actually insert that contact's address (or anything at all) into that Word
document.

So when you open the address Book in Word, do you see all your Contacts

As you correctly point out, the KB article contained instructions for a
variety of alternatives. I did not "just" copy and paste them. Instead,
I
copied and pasted the appropriate alternative instructions, the
instructions
that applied to my particular circumstance, the instructions that I
actually
did follow.

With respect to the "status" of my "Contacts Folder" and "Outlook
Address
Book service" in the first place or even their status now, I'm not sure
that
I know what you mean and/or where to look to ascertain this
information.

Russ Valentine asked:
"When you open the address book in Word, what appears in the "Show
Names
from the:" box?"
Ans: I see "Contacts" beneath and slightly indented to "Outlook Address
Book". My recollection is that I have always seen this, both when I was
enjoying proper operation of Word 2003's "ToolsLetters and
MailingEnvelopes
and Labeling" facility to print off a single addressed envelope, and
even
after this Word facility abruptly stopped working.

Russ Valentine asked:
"What do you see when you open the address book in Outlook?"

Ans: Actually, I'm not certain I know what you're talking about or how
to
do
this either. In Outlook 2003 I have dealt with "Contacts" not "Address
Books." Among other tasks, I use Outlook to send email, clicking on the
little "open book" icon to the left of the "To.", "CC." and "BCC."

newly created emails. This Outlook 2003 facility for inserting
appropriate
email addresses into newly composed email messages continues to work
properly, if this is what you mean.
