Exchange 2000, Win2000, OfficeXP
When sending an email in Outlook, if I click the "TO:" button and then choose "contacts" from the "show names from" dropdown box, the list is blank. The email addresses from the contacts will not display. If I go to the "properties" of the contacts and then the "outlook address book" tab, the "show this folder as an email address" IS checked. Everything else seems to be fine. the contacts themselves display properly and there are email adresses in them. This works fine on all of our other machines except this one. I searched Technet but didn't find anything. Any ideas?? Thanks, Jim |

Just guessing, but is the client's delivery options set
the same as the rest? If the client's delivery options are set to the personal folders, rather than the exchange mailbox, the information in the contacts folder will not show, unless the folder has been set to synchronize with the mailbox. Hope that helps... >-----Original Message----- >Exchange 2000, Win2000, OfficeXP >When sending an email in Outlook, if I click the "TO:" >button and then choose "contacts" from the "show names >from" dropdown box, the list is blank.

I was given that same advice by a friend but alas.....it didn't work. However, I will try it again. >-----Original Message----- >I have run into this same thing on occasion, mostly when >remapping to a different pst file or something like that. >What has been the best in resolving this is the following: > >Goto tool/email account.

Just tried that again and it didn't fix the problem. This
has got to be the wierdest thing I've seen. Funny thing is, it used to work on this machine and it still works on all other machines. Any other ideas? Anyone? >-----Original Message----- >I have run into this same thing on occasion, mostly when >remapping to a different pst file or something like that. >What has been the best in resolving this is the following: > >Goto tool/email account.
