Default Showing contacts as address book

Strongly doubt it. It's not an easy fix because it has to do with migrating
profile settings. Outlook 2010 has many improvements in that area, but I
can't imagine we'd see them in Outlook 2007.

Do you know if MS is working on a fix for the contacts to address book
issue
in Outlook 2007?

If you have Contacts in the Contacts folder but they are not accessible
when
you click on the To button, check these settings:

Make sure the Contact folder is enabled as an email address book. Right
click the Contacts folder, choose Properties then Outlook Address Book.
Is
the box to enable as email address book is checked?

If this is grayed out...

Go to Tools | Email Accounts, choose View or change existing directories
or
address book. Is the Outlook Address Book present? If it isn't listed,
add
it and close and restart Outlook. If it is listed, then remove it and
close
then restart Outlook and repeat these steps to add it.

If you are using Outlook 2007 and the the checkbox is grayed, you'll need
to
make a new profile as you can't add the Outlook Address Book service due
to
a bug.

Hi,

I just upgraded from Office 2000 to 2007. Everything seemed to work
fine
on
upgrading outlook until I tried to view my contacts as the outlook
address
book. I found instructions on changing settings within outlook to make
this
happen but nothing has worked so far.

Any help would be great!
