adding an ACT! 6.0 database as an address book

Guest

I have Outlook 2002 on my pc's and use ACT for Contact information. I was able to add my ACT database as an address book on one machine, but when I went to do the same on another, an ACT database is not shown as an option for a type of Address book that can be added, only "Outlook Address Book" and "Personal Address Book". ACT is installed on all my machines

How do I get Outlook to know an ACT database can be selected for an Address Book

Thanks

I figured this out. I needed to reinstall ACT. I am accessing a network database, so I deleted all the ACT local directories, since I didn't need them. Apparently Outlook must look for this directory structure to know ACT is installed, so after reinstalling the "ACT Database" option now shows up in the Address Book Types list in the Dialog.
