Several possible problems he
1. You would never transfer Contacts that way. You had a perfectly intact
Outlook data file in the first place. Why would you export to a foreign
format and then import it back? That's a great way to lose data, but not a
way to transport it. Have you checked to see that your email addresses are
in the right place, valid, and resolved? If they aren't they cannot appear
in your address book view.
2. How did you add the address book service to this profile and configure

When I select To in Mail my contacts do not appear in an address book. In
fact, there is not address book in the dropdown list.

I tried going to Contacts Properties, but the 'show this folder as an
address book' checkbox is greyed out.

I am using Windows 7 and Outlook 2007 both installed as OEM. My Contacts
were exported from my old computer (XP SP3 and Outlook 2003) using the
export
function as a .csv file then imported the same way into the new.

Can you assist, please?
