accesss 'contacts' in Outlook

[Guest]

Hello,

I have just done a reinstall of WinXP and Office '03 etc. I imported my
address book from my OE6 settings. When sending an email from Outlook 2003,
when I click on the 'To' field on the blank email there is no addresses to
choose from, yet ewhen I click on the 'Contacts' button on the left side of
Outlook's window there are all my addresses that I imported from Outlook
Express.

How do I enable Outlook to access the email addresses of these contacts
using the 'To' button on the outward bound email template?

Thanks,
Shane

Thankyou! "Make sure that the Contacts folder is marked as an Outlook
Address Book " was the fix I needed.
