Outlook contacts alpha look fails after I have moved a PST file
I moved an Outlook 2003 PST file from one computer to another. Everthing
works fine except the contacts search when I key in a name in the toolbar. Is there some index I need to force Outlook to rebuild? If so. please advise how I do that.

How did you "move" the PST file?
How did you configure the Outlook Address Book after doing so? Sounds like end user error in not migrating data correctly. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "PWoundle" wrote in message ...

Outlook contacts alpha look fails after I have moved a PST fil
With Outlook closed on the destination computer I changed the name of the
existing PST file to OLD I then copied the the PST file from the source computer to the destination computer and opened up OutLook. Then I copied the 20 contacts I had in the Old PST to the new PST.

Russ, I reversed the merge process as from your comment I realized had used
the wrong PST as the master for the merge. Thank you - everything is now fine "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: How did you "move" the PST file?
