I recently got an updated pc - it like its predecessor runs windows xp pro
and outlook 03.

I just copied my old outlook.pst over the old one and I have everything --
EXCEPT ONE THING

I can't use the search address book window - I've changed from Outlook
Address Book to contacts (I have 687 contacts) and I get nothing - there is a
blank window for Contacts and a note "No entries in this address Book" for
Outlook Address Book

how can I correct my screw up?

Never overwrite one PST with another. You've corrupted your mail profile.
See this:

if you can see the contacts when you press the to button, you need to reset
the search index.
