It would be better if you posted your Outlook version.

can't see contacts when clicking "to" in new mail message
went thru the steps untill i got to this one:
3. On the Outlook Address Book tab, click to select Show this folder as an e-mail address book, type a descriptive name, and then click OK. "show this folder as an e-mail address book" is greyed out and the check box next to it doesn't work. btw thanks for your help & time.

As the article tells you, you must add the Outlook Address Book Service to
your profile first. Tools Accounts... -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Kinan" wrote in message ... went thru the steps untill i got to this one: 3.

can't see contacts when clicking "to" in new mail message
I did that. i started at the top of the article and worked my way down to
this step. the outlook address book service was not there. it is now. i have restarted not only outlook but the entire pc before going to the next step of marking the contacts folder. that's the bit that didn't work. everything above that worked just like the article said.

Can't repro your problem, even in Outlook 2007. All works fine for everyone
else. At what point are things still not working? Can you select the Outlook Address Book in the properties of the Contacts Folder? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Kinan" wrote in message ...

can't see contacts when clicking "to" in new mail message
i can get to the "outlook addres book" tab in the properties sheet of
"contacts". i can change the name there, but the check box to "show this folder as an email address book" is dimmed and not working. i have also tried creating contacts into vista's contacts folder directly and through windows mail. all works fine except showing the email when i click "to" in a new message. i know that it's a wierd one. that's why i'm here looking for help. cheers.
