Default My address book doesn't have the same info as contacts

So, just to be clear. This used to work fine. I have been using Outlook for
many years. I updated to Office 07 a few months ago I don't know if this is a
result as I don't use the address book very much. I usually use my contacts
folder to view contacts. I recently wanted to make a distribution list, so I
went to the address book and saw that most of my names were missing their
email addresses although they display fine in contacts. Everything in the
contacts folder looks fine, only in the address book no email addresses.
There are a few that display and I think they are emails that I have recently
added. I think it may have been a result of the update. I have hundreds of
contacts and in the address book I have about 6 email addresses.

When I updated, I did not change anything. All that displays in the address
book is the person's name.
I didn't specifically set up anything. When I look at the options, it says
it is using my outlook contacts. What specifically would you like me to
check?

That does not mean it is the correct folder. If it were, it would display
every valid, resolved electronic address in that folder, which you claim it
does not. Tell us the rest of the story of how you created this folder and
configured the Outlook Address Book Service in this profile. Tell us what
does not display that you think should.

When I look at my contacts through Outllok 07, I see all information.
When
I
look in the address book, most of the email addresses and additional
information is missing. I don't know how to make them sync up. I have
the
address book set to look at Contacts. The names are there, just not the
email
address. What can I do?

When I display the adress book, I look at the drop down on the top left
and
select Contact folder which is a sub folder of the Outlook Address book.
