    Thanks for the screenshot, davehc.

    My version of Outlook is obviously very different. When I click on File -- Accounts, I'm immediately taken to the following page:

    I have somehow managed to include my list of contacts amongst the available address books. The problem now is how to make it the default address book. Is there a registry entry or something similar that could do this?

    Ok. It is difficult to follow, with the language difference, but, sincerely I cannot even emulate the picture you have shown. Guess I will have to leave the problem with someone else.,

    Do you have the whole Office suite or just Outlook stand alone?

    Ok. Making progress I see. *Smile See if this helps:

    Did my last instructions help to a solution?

    You may want to mark this thread as solved if you have not already.
