missing distribution list
I deleted one member of a distribution list and lost the whole list. Have
read others' accounts of this, but can't seem to restore. The list does not
show up in my deleted folder. I have backup .pst from a few days before.
Start Outlook, go to file/open/outlook data file. Navigate to my backup file.
Its modified date/time is right now (why?). Select anyway, a pause, screen
looks the same, have today's email and no list. Either the backup didn't
really open or somehow did another backup just now.
Repeated process a little while later, same thing. Modified date/time is
new, right now.

sync for entire office's Outlook 2000 contacts
Can anyone recommend an effective method to sychronize the contact
lists for an office of about 50 people with a master Net Folders
contact list? No one remembers to consistently send updates to the
admin assistant so the global list is always out of date. It would be
a colossal manual project to reconcile all of the entries from
everyone's personal contact lists. Does anyone have a cost-effective
method for automating this task?
Unfortunately, our office is stuck with Outlook 2000 for the time
being due to various reasons.

How to Update Outlook 2007 Activities in ACT2008
I have tried everything to get Outlook 2007 e-mails to create a history in
ACT2008.
I have also tried the Outlook Activities from the Tools Menu Bar in ACT and
it doesn't appear to do it. I was sure it did before and I don't know where
else to look. I have tried every Help message to try and find it but to no
avale.
Can anyone help me out as I am coping my notes from the e-mail plus
attachments if any to the History location in act each time I send something
but that gets very time consuming and if I forget to it doesn't help me when
I need to get a history on what I sent to a particular contact.
I work in a small company and work in sales so I am not in my office a lot
and do most of my work from my car and no one else to turn to since I am the
only one who uses ACT Software.
Hope someone can help.

ago and have not typed in his name since then. However, when I begin

automatically pops up as soon as I complete "Fred".

continue to appear when similar names or entered. WHERE DO THESE

Outlook 2003 Contacts & Address Book
I have had been using Outlook Express for many years and now have started
using Outlook 2003 for just my business emails. I have 2 questions here.
First, in the "folder list", why do I have 2 folders called "Personal
Folders", both with the identical folders underneath? When I click on
"contact" in either of these trees, it seems they are identical. When I click
on the "Contact" button in my shortcut list, there are 2 items listed in "my
contacts" favorites: One is called "Contacts" the other "Contacts in Personal
Folders". I'm confused why this is duplicated.
This may have something to do with the next problem. When I open a new email
window and click "To:", I get the following error message: The address list
could not be displayed. The Contacts folder associated with this address list
could not be opened; it may have been moved or deleted, or you do not have
permission...." (I am not working on a server, it is my personal computer and
I have Windows XP Media Edition. ) However, if I click "ok", it brings up an
empty Address Book and if I click on "Show Names from the:" I get a drop-down
menu that allows me to choose from: Outlook Address Book, Contacts or again,
Contacts! It is defaulted to one called Contacts so if I click on the other
it then brings up the list of all my contacts correctly!
I would appreciate any help, this is driving me crazy. I do have a different
list of contacts in Outlook vs Outlook Express and I would like to keep my
personal separate from my business.

Outlook 2007 - Phone Number Display In Contacts
We have an interesting outlook contact phone number display issue.
We have programmed our Phone and Modem settings to include rules for phone
number prefixes within our area code that require long distance information.
(1+areacode) When adding a new contact everything displays great. For
example.... 1 (999) 999-9999 Etc...
Existing contacts before the rules however, still display as either (999)
999-9999 or worse 999-9999. Opening the contact and clicking the phone
number button fixes it, but with some users having hundreds-thousands of
contacts that is kind of an un-reasonable approach. All contacts are stored
in Exchange as the back-end.
Funny note: If you click the "dial" button, the number dials correctly even
though the display is wrong.
Is there a way to have the contacts DISPLAY properly without having the
users edit each one? Will export, delete all, import work? What are the
chances for data loss doing that? (Some users have information in a LOT of
fields.)
Thanks in advance for any help...

Import from Excel to Outlook
Having duly searched the "microsoft.public.outlook.contacts" archive I made
minimally successful attempt to import an Excel format data base (.xlt) but only
the "business street" field was imported all other fields were blank.
I used Excel and Outlook both 2000.
1. First I named each column in the spread sheet with the exact default names
used in Outlook.
2. Then ran the Outlook import wizard
3. Verified that the import fields were matched with the ones in Outlook
4. Ran the import process.
After a long period of time the process finished with no reported errors (2000
contacts each with 30 fields). Where did all the data go. I have drilled on
View settings but to no joy.
I had previously tried this with a customize form and concluded I could not
import into it successfully.
I then uninstalled Outlook to clear any bad effects from the failed attempt and
reinstalled Outlook. But the new installation still had evidence of the failed
effort. So I do not know if this is what is preventing the successful
importation. At the least I would like to know (short of formatting the HD) how
to get a clean install of Outlook.
