Outllook 2007 and Windows 7 Upgrade
I recently installed Windows 7. The rest of my Outlook 2007 seems to be
doing fine, but I do not have my contacts appear in the drop down list when I search the To, Cc, and Bcc boxes. I followed the directions on the online help thread, but Contacts does not show up as an option in my Addresss Book tools/options. My contacts still appear in the contacts tab, but they are not synching with my email address book. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

How did you migrate your Outlook data?

I ran into exactly the same issue. Check Andy Siegal's post from Oct. 30th
below. The solution is to create a whole new profile for your email accounts (yes, a pain) but then it will find your address book. Go to Control Panel, Mail, Show Profiles, and then create a new one. Keep the old one for now until your new one is working fine. You just have to point the new profile to your outlook files and it will find everything. Do this under Data Management in Outlook (from your new profile). Once you have all your email set-up and everything appears normal you can go back to control panel and delete your original profile. "Karyn" wrote: I recently installed Windows 7.

That did not work for me.
What did work is that I had to open Outlook select the properties of contacts groups (family, work ect.) and click on Outlook Address Tab then put a check in the box to Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book.
