Known issue. You never use Windows Easy transfer with Outlook. It creates a
corrupt profile to which the Outlook Address Book Service cannot be added or
repaired. Create a new profile from scratch. Migrate your data correctly
this time by opening your Outlook Data File in the new profile. Instructions
are posted here daily.

I upgraded from xp using office 2003 to a new computer with vista and
office
2007

I used a Belkin transfer cable to do all the dirty work for me

Provide the necessary information. Just simple things like your Outlook
version and how you added the Outlook Address Book Service to your
profile
would be a nice start.

Hi Sue,

When I try and check the contacts properties/outlook address book tab/
"show
this folder as an email address book", the tick box is disabled

I have 1 contacts folder and 4 sub contact folders and same problem
with
all

Each contacts folder will appear as a separate list in the address
book
if
you check the Outlook Address Book box on the folder's Properties
dialog.

Hi Sue,

How do I build address lists for the Outlook Address Book? I have
lots
of
contacts in my Contacts Folder and I'd like to categorize them into
2
or 3
major address books that I can choose from rather than have to
search
through
one large list to find someone. How do I create multiple address
books?
