Business Contacts folder is unable to display after removing File

[Guest]

I'm using Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003 with Business Contact
Manager. In table view, I removed the "File As" column. Now the following
message appears when I click on Business Contacts. "Unable to display the
folder. ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is
specified." On the Menu bar, the View dropdown doesn't give me the option of
"Arrange by" to correct the field list. Originally, I was just trying to
make room on the screen to see Home and Business Addresses.

You could try starting Outlook with the /cleanviews switch. However, this
will get rid of any customized views you have so be careful with this
switch.

Can you get to the Define Views dialog box? If so, you could try to "reset"
your current view.
