Default How can I Delete all my contacts?

I tried this and I get a messsage: The messaging interface has returned an
unknown error. If the problem persists, restart outlook. I cannot even
delete one contact. I am running vista and office 2007 outlook. I did
restart outlook and even uninstalled and reinstalled office 2007. Still I
cannot delete a contact.

- Hit Control-A (for select All)
- Hit the Delete key

None of those actions would work. Try the routine maintenance procedures:
1. Repair your data file
2. Create a new Outlook profile.
