Default Hidden Contacts in Outlook 2007

When I create an email and click on the to: button to go to my address list
some contacts are not listed, however, when I type their name in the to: line
of the email they appear. Why can't I see them in my address list and how do
I get them in there. I use Business Manager and they are not in there either.
I imported them from Outlook Express and they used to appear and then
disappeared.

The address book view shows only valid electronic addresses that reside in
your Contacts Folder. Your autocompletion cache has nothing to do with your
Contacts.

You don't understand. As I said, your autocompletion cache is completely
different than your Contacts. The address exists in your cache, but not in
your Contacts Folder nor the address book view thereof.

Thanks, Is there any way of taking a contact from the cache into the contacts
folder?

Sure. Create a Contact in Outlook and enter the email address into the
Contact Record.
