Missing Contacts
Hello,
I am using Outlook 2000 and Windows XP. I have an odd thing happen. When I am in Outlook I look at my contacts everyone is there. But when I am writing an email and click on the To: the "address book" shows just a few contacts. Now I know the "address book" and the contacts are the same but I am still missing people alot of them. Don't remember anything happening to Outlook or computer so cant tell you how this happened. But if you know of a fix I would appreciate it. Thanks, Bec |

Make sure the Contacts that appear to be missing actually reside in the
Contacts Folder you are displaying and that they all have valid, resolved (underlined) electronic addresses. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "beccas1963" wrote in message ...

Russ,
Thanks. I did another check and for some reason the contacts in their own folders were not showing so I made new folders and moved the contacts in there and they are showing up now. Go figure I guess. Thanks, Bec |

What you did was reset the connection to the Outlook Address Book. You can
do the same thing by removing and re-adding the Outlook Address Book. That way you don't have to make new folders. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "beccas1963" wrote in message ... Russ, Thanks.
