How can I get Activities tab in Contacts (Outlook 2003) to reactivate? Until
recently, all activities: journal, appointments, calendar, emails, Word
documents, etc that were associated with a contact appeared in the Activities
tab. Now the little magnifying glass icon circles, but nothing shows in the
pane.

Go to the Properties dialog for the Contacts folder and on the Activities
tab, modify or create activities groups to point at the desired folders.

Thanks, I have gone to Contacts, Properties, Activities, and Modify. I
checked the Personal Folders, search all Sub-Folders. When I go into an
individual Contact, Activities, All-Itmes, the pane is still empty. The
Journal pane will show calendar, contact, and journal items, but not emails.

Did you recently change the email address in the contact record?

No, I did not change the email address for a specific contact that has the
problem. The missing entries from the Show: ALL Items is universal to all
Contacts. There are no entries that show.
However, I can view most activities through the Show: Journal (drop-down
under the), Activities Tab (now that I checked more boxes under Properties).
Thanks for your help!

I'd redo the folders for the All Items activities group.
