    - Address Book not showing contacts after importing Contacts from .p I exported my Outlook Contacts from one PC to another. When I open "Contacts" in Outlook I can see my entire Contacts list. However, when I open Address Book in "Mail" or "Calendar", it is empty (I get an error message indicating that "the Contacts folder associated with this address list could nto be opened". I can't find where the Contacts file associated with my Address Book might be stored. I can't even discover which file my Address Book is trying to access when it wants to list my contacts. -- Charley T Tag: How can I print the name in my AutoComplete contact list? nk2 Tag: 123323

    - "Cannot find contacts folder" error message We're having a problem with one of our users receiving encrypted emails. The solution from the MS site said to exchange signed emails and save the person's name to Contacts; however when we try that we get the message that the contact folder can't be found. I've removed and reinstalled the outlook address book and redesignated the contacts folder to show up as the outlook addrss book but to no avail. What am I missing?

    - Why no more (+) plus sign to expand distribution lists? All of a sudden Outlook 2007 is messing up. When I add a distribution list to an email, I can no longer expand it. the plus (+) sign has totally disappeared next to it. Furthermore, although my settings haven't changed, the only way I can send and receive emails is to hit the send adn receive button. So when I make an email and hit send - it goes to the outbox. And when I boot up Outlook it no longer automatically receives. I am wondering if I need to download something or if it has a bug.

    - Preventing Contacts removed from Outlook address book from I have removed many old contacts from my Outlook address book but they continue to pop up on auto-fill when I'm trying to type in a similar name even though they no longer appear in the address book. For example, I may have removed "Fred Smith" from my address book months ago and have not typed in his name since then. However, when I begin to type in "Fred Jones" for an e-mail address, "Fred Smith" automatically pops up as soon as I complete "Fred". This gets worse as time goes on since more and more older entries continue to appear when similar names or entered. WHERE DO THESE DELETED CONTACTS COME FROM IF THEY ARE NO LONGER IN MY ADDRESS BOOK AND HOW DO I PERMANENTLY GET RID OF THEM?? Thanks for any help on this as I have been trying to find a solution for several years. Mike Tag: How can I print the name in my AutoComplete contact list? nk2 Tag: 123267

    - Importing contacts into Exchange have Outlook 2003 which I use to POP email from my provider into my private folders. I also have contacts and calendar entries. I use Wireless Sync to sync it all up with my Treo running Windows Mobile. I want to upgrade from POP to Exchange service with my provider (hostway.com). However, my provider tells me that I can bring over my old POP'ed email to my Outlook's Exchange mailbox but not my contacts or calendar entries. Is there a way to do this by importing a file or just copy/paste from one place to another within Outlook? (I am a one person company so it is OK for my personal contacts to be the same as the "company" contacts.) Tag: How can I print the name in my AutoComplete contact list? nk2 Tag: 123259

    - 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. Thank you in advance for your help.

    - 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... D Tag: How can I print the name in my AutoComplete contact list? nk2 Tag: 123234

    - 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.

We have a Public Contacts folder and every individual on the system has a personal contact folder. What my boss wants me to do is merge all of lists together. The hard part is, he wants the personal contact folder to automatically 'sync' with the Public Contacts Folder, so that our users won't have to browse as much to bring up the master contact list. Right now we're running into problems where everyone has a few contacts folders (I don't know how they're even doing this!) and adding names on their personal accounts so no one else can see them.
