"show this folder as email address book"
(Outlook 2000)
I'm trying to get my Contacts Folder to display in the Address Book dialog box, and have followed all the instructions from Help. However, when it comes to stp 4. "Select the Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book check box", I am not able to check the box. What do I do from here? |

"show this folder as email address book"
You need to provide a more accurate account of your version. Outlook 2000
had 2 completely different mail support modes. Which are you using? What do you see when you look at the properties of your Contacts Folder? Is the box checked or unchecked? Is it grayed out? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Toyah" wrote in message ...

"show this folder as email address book"
This is the same problem that I am having with Outlook 2003. The box will not
check and it is grayed out. Smeone else said that you have to delete the address book?? Any help would be great.

"show this folder as email address book"
It is not unusual for the Outlook Address Book to “lose track” of the
connection to its Contacts Folder when you move or import your PST or update your Outlook version or operating system. Use the following steps to reset the connection. Note that in some instances you may actually have to remove the Outlook Address Book completely from your Profile, close Outlook, and then re-add it before you can get it to work. Make sure the Contact folder is enabled as an email address book. Right click the Contacts folder, choose Properties then Outlook Address Book. Is the box to enable as email address book checked? If this is grayed out...Go to Tools | Email Accounts, choose View or change existing directories or address book. Is the Outlook Address Book present? If it isn't listed, add it and close and restart Outlook. If it is listed, then remove it and close then restart Outlook and repeat these steps to add it.
