Rebuild Contacts Links
I recently installed Vista and and Office 2003. Now when I click on a
Contact link on the bottom left hand corner of a Contact in Outlook, I get the following message. "Cannot perform the requested operation. The command selected is not valid for this recipient." I remember that there is a command to rebuild these links, but I can't remember what it is.

How did you migrate your data after the installation? Did you start with a new mail profile? -- Brian Tillman

Rebuild Contacts Links
I created a new mail profile and added the Outlook file and Archive, made
them the default and deleted the Outlook file that came with the new profile. "Brian Tillman" wrote: chunnel wrote: I recently installed Vista and and Office 2003.

It should have preserved your links. As long as you avoid export/import, the links should have worked.. Sorry, I don't have any suggestions. -- Brian Tillman

Even though you migrated data correctly, you still need to reset your
Outlook Address Book Service to use the file you migrated. Did you? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "chunnel" wrote in message ...

I just removed and created a new Outlook address book, if that's what you
meant. But the problem remains. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Even though you migrated data correctly, you still need to reset your Outlook Address Book Service to use the file you migrated.
