Default Changing computers

I have a problem since switching to a new computer and installing Outlook
XP.
My address book entries are empty - yet all the e-mail addresses are in my
contacts (so that has come across - but not the address book/personal
folder.

If I try to (manually) add a new entry in the address book I get told ""A
new entry could not be added. Please use the contacts module to create this
entry"- and I have tried that - but I don't where in Contacts I can add a
contact to the address book.

So when I create a new e-mail message I am not able to click on the Äddress
Book"button and choose a name. Frustrating.

To convert to the new computer I copied outlook.pst from ...\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook - so all the old messages and
the contacts came across - but not the address book.

Ideas ... suggestions ... please

Peter
