Problem Accessing Outlook Contacts
Word 2003, Outlook 2003. Since upgrading from Office XP to Office 2003 I am
getting erroneous results. When I do a Tools - Letters and Mailings - Envelopes and Labels and press the "Insert address" icon on the Envelopes and Labels dialog, I get the following unexpected results: 1. I get a dialog box telling me to "Choose Profile." The default profile name (and the only profile available from the drop down list) is "Outlook." 2. When I select the profile "Outlook" in the dialog in 1 above, I get the error dialog: The address list could not be displayed. The Contacts folder associated with the address list could not be opened; it may have been moved or deleted, or you do not have permissions. 3. When I press the OK button I get a "Select Name" dialog that shows names from "Contacts." However, there are no names displayed. ANY IDEA WHAT I NEED TO DO? I have already tried uninstalling Outlook and reinstalling Outlook. Thanks for any help and God bless. Dr. Doug Pruiett Good News Jail & Prison Ministry www.goodnewsjail.org |

Problem Accessing Outlook Contacts
By the way, I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Outlook and Word. I have
installed all updates to Office 2003. There are contacts in my Outlook Contacts folder. I am able to acces them in Outlook, and I am able to initiate a MailMerge from Outlook using the contacts. Again, thanks for any help you may provide. God bless. -- Dr. Doug Pruiett Good News Jail & Prison Ministry www.goodnewsjail.org "Chaplain Doug" wrote: Word 2003, Outlook 2003.

Problem Accessing Outlook Contacts
From Outlook tools e-mail accounts view or change existing directories
or address books. Delete the Outlook address book. Re-add Outlook address book. Check the properties of Outlook Contacts and ensure that under the Outlook Address Book tab, that 'show this folder as an e-mail address book' is checked. If you have more than one contacts list you can set the order in which they are displayed from address book tools If this doesn't fix it consult the Outlook forum. Note that re-installing Office products rarely achieves anything useful. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Chaplain Doug wrote: By the way, I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Outlook and Word.

Dear Graham:
That licked the problem. Thank you. By the way, I had found a similar post by you somewhere else. I had grabbed that one last night and was set to try it this morning.
