invalid ENTRYID message

[Bill Dudley]

I recently "restored" my outlook contact list. Now I
have a list of contacts but there are no e-mail
addresses. The properties box will not open because "an
invalid ENTRYID was passed in". Any assistance would be
appreciated.

I fixed a problem w/ my Outlook very similar to this issue.

Here's what I did.
1) Go to your Contacts list in outlook
2) Add a new column using the field chooser. Add the "Subject" field
listed in the "All Mail Fields" section
3) Sort your contacts by this new column.
4) Open up the contacts which have a blank subject.
5) Make some sort of trivial modification to the contact. Add a space
somewhere or retype one letter in their name or something.
6) Hit Ctrl-> to move to the next contact, when prompted to save, hit
return to save.
7) Repeat steps 5-6 until their aren't any more "Untitled Contacts"
remaining.

Hope that helps others!
