How can I get Word 2003 to look at my contacts in Outlook

In Word 97 I could address a single envelope by using Tools and Envelopes
which would show all of my Outlook contacts. When I upgraded to Office 2003
Word can no longer see the Outlook contacts file. Word tells me the file
has been moved or deleted, but the contacts are still in Outlook.

Assuming that Outlook is your default e-mail application (it won't work
unless it is), then from Outlook > tools > e-mail accounts > view or change
address books. Delete the Outlook address book. (This will not delete your
contacts) Add the Outlook Address book again and make sure that the contacts
list property is set to 'show as an e-mail address book'.
