No entries in addressbook under distribution list select members?
When I create a new distribution list and then click select members I get No
entries in this addressbook dispite having a couple hundred contacts. (Setting is show members from the Outlook Addressbook.) I had reinstalled Outlook and the problem started after that. How can I find my contacts when creating a distribution list? |

No entries in addressbook under distribution list select membe
I also do not have any of my contacts appear when I click on TO when
emailing. I must type in the beginning of a name and then hit crtl K to bring up a list of names to select from for each and every entry. When I tried to set up a distribution list, this is the message I got. The address list could not be displayed. The Contact list associated with this folder could not be opened; it may have been moved or deleted; or you do not have permissions. What do I need to do? thanks for any help you can give me. janis "Brian Tillman" wrote: Chip wrote: When I create a new distribution list and then click select members I get No entries in this addressbook dispite having a couple hundred contacts.

I have this exact same problem.
I've tried your suggestion, but when I click on properties and go to the address book tab, it does not allow me to check the box that says make it an address book. Thank you for your suggestions.

State your Outlook version.
State whether you added the Outlook Address Book Service to your profile. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Triffany" wrote in message ... I have this exact same problem.

No entries in addressbook under distribution list select membe
I have a brand new computer with Windows Vista and Outlook 2007 Office.
I used a data transfer cable to move over information from my old system to my new. It transferred over my old outlook profiles and when it did it transferred my old PAB to the Business Contacts manager. So, when I have my email up and I use the contacts link on the left side of the screen it brings up all of my folders and all of my contacts from my old PAB. BUT... if I click on 'To:' in a message, or if I click on Address book at the top or if I try to populate a Distribution List that I created by right clicking in the contacts area and creating new DL... it says I can't populate it because there are no entries in the Address book. It seems to be treating the 'contacts' and the Address book as two separate entities where the contacts in Business Manager have my addresses and information and the Address Book is empty. Thank you.

Outlook hasn't used a PAB for over 10 years. Why were you?
You haven't answered my question yet. Nor have you told us how you migrated your Outlook data. The fact that you used a "transfer cable" tell us nothing. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Triffany" wrote in message ... I have a brand new computer with Windows Vista and Outlook 2007 Office.
