ms. staples should be a bit kinder to those of us who don't have the
privilege of having the time, brains or tenacity to sit in front of a

Shirl seem a bit "oot"and "a" as we say in my business.

Remove the LDAP directory service from Control Panel=MAil Icon-Accounts. Depending on your version (which you conveniently left out) it will either be a choice on the ensuing page or a tab for address books. Remove the LDAP from there, then back up one step and add the Outlook Address Book service. Completely close and reopen Outlook and you should be back in business.
