Solved Office 2007 Address Book Missing on New Profile

[pete barnes]

I added a new profile to my MS Office 7 Outlook program. I have two profiles set up and working fine, both of which have my Contact List shown for the Address Book when composing an email etc.. I have a third profile that works fine except it displays an empty Contact list when searching for an address. Now I have added yet another new profile and have it working (mostly, other issues in another thread) but this new profile also displays an empty Contact list when I need an address.

I have searched everywhere, including on this forum and on the web, for a solution to this problem, none of the remedies work. (As well, it seems that my MS Outlook 7 has slightly different steps to follow to do a lot of these operations than the steps provided in various non-solutions that I have found.) Is there any procedure that will make my Contacts list show up in the two profiles that display a blank list?

Thanks

Have you checked this website for a solution.

Unfortunately, I am running Outlook 7, and that site only discusses later versions, using functionality which does not seem toi be available in Outlook 7. But thanks anyway...

I solved the problem. I exported my Contacts list from a good profile as an external .CSV file, then imported the .CSV file into the Address Book contacts list for the empty list in the problem profile. Worked very well, took about 5 minutes or so, now the target profile displays the list when I originate an email and select the "To" field.

Thanks for getting back & glad to hear you have it fixed. Incidently the method you used is the recommended way of doing it.
