Default Contacts list is empty in Address Book (Outlook 2000 SP3)

When I access the Contacts folder on the Outlook Bar, I see all of my
contacts listed. However, when I open the Address Book and select Contacts,
it is empty. I have a subfolder in my Contacts folder and those contacts do
show up in the Address Book. Very puzzling. BTW, I'm not using Personal
Address Book

Need a more accurate account of your version. Outlook 2000 tells us nothing.
It exists in 2 completely different modes. Which are you using?

Did you enable your Contacts Folder as an email address book in its
properties?

Reset the service: Remove the OAB service from your profile. Restart
Outlook. Add it back and enable your folders. Restart again.

You are one of a kind then. No further ideas. I suspect there is more to
this story than you have revealed.

Just what it says. I have never seen a case where removing and reinstalling
the Outlook Address Book Service didn't correct this problem. There must be
more involved here than you've mentioned. For example, are you certain that
the Contacts in this folder all have valid, resolved electronic addresses?
If you create a new Contact with a valid resolved electronic address in this
folder will it appear?
