Express Address Book within Outlook
Background:
Windows XP Home (5.1.2600), Outlook 2000 (9.0.0.2711) Address Book (6.00.260000 (xpclient.010817-1148) Breifly: I had Express loaded correctly; working. I loaded Outlook overtop correctly; working. When I clicked on the Address button on the Outlook toolbar, I would get the Outlook Express Address book. I have had a hard drive failure, switched machines, used Express breifely, switched to Mozilla Thunderbird (because I couldn't find my install disk for Outlook), loaded Outlook today, imorted/restored my old data (mail, rules, alerts, address book; working) and when I clicked on the Address Button on the Outlook toolbar, I was surprised to see a different address book (typical Outlook Contacts list - so my husband tells me). After poking around, I found (Start, Programs, Accessories, Address Book) the address book I am used to. It was the Outlook Express Address book, and, after importing my data, it looks just the way I am accustomed to it looking. My question: after fiddling around with Outlook, HOW do I get the Address Book button on the tool bar to call the Outlook Express Address Book? It used to do that... Reason for remedy: I'm a picky, stay at home mom who figures it worked that way before, it ought to do it again. ~~jenn.lehman |

Express Address Book within Outlook
Your question cannot be answered because you did not provide your mail
support mode. Outlook will never display the contents of the Windows Address Book. However, Internet Mail Only mode uses the Windows Address Book engine to display your Outlook Contacts Folder, so it will look like the Windows Address Book. Corp/Workgroup mode used the Outlook Address Book to display your Contacts. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "J. Lehman" wrote in message ...
