Default Contacts management and use

Greetings,
I have stumbled upon this same issue over and over again. It has also
occurred under different circumstances.
For example: I was using Microsoft Word Student Edition to print
envelopes. I wanted to use my Outlook contacts. I go to TOOLS LETTERS AND
MAILINGS ENVELOPES AND LABELS which opens the Envelopes and Labels settings
box. To use the automation option for DELIVERY ADDRESS, you're to click on
the open book icon to open the SELECT NAME box. Once there, you can SHOW
NAMES FROM THE: Contacts or Outlook Address Book. This is where the issue
begins.
First of all, many contacts from my Outlook Contacts database ARE
displayed. MANY of them don't have their address associated with them in this
SELECT NAME box, although a quick look back in the Outlook Contacts [via the
Navigation Pane] shows them intact. WHY?
The other thing that gets me is there seems to be no way to select the
Outlook Address book in this SELECT NAME box, it says NO ENTRIES IN THIS
ADDRESS BOOK. Again, I quick look back at Outlook, shows hundreds of names.
I have tried to find the answer to this riddle many times over the
years, but can't seem to make it work properly. Please help!
