Using Outlook 2003 - I have lost my E-mail send To: link (address book look
up) to my Contacts.

Is there an area in the registry that I can change to fix this?

I do not know what happen, except I found that someone was trying to set up
MAPI structures and they had fourn (4) Contacts setup within MAPI.

I deleted them and now I can not use Outlook E-mail send To: and link to the
contacts - which are all correct.

Can you help me please.

Thanks ahead.

Anxious to fix this!
 
Explain what this means:
"I found that someone was trying to set up
MAPI structures and they had fourn (4) Contacts setup within MAPI."

Explain what you did to disrupt the connection between Contacts Folders and
the Outlook Address Book Service.

I wish I knew what was done - I did not do it.

The four contacts were found by looking at the address book in Outlook
Express.

These 4 were setup as MAPI structures. I then found more indication that
someone tried to setup MS Exchange - lthey do not use Exchange!

Bingo.
Whatever they did, all you need do is remove the Outlook Address Book,
restart Outlook, then re-add it using the instructions in this article.
No data will have been touched with all this experimentation with the
Outlook Address Book and everything should work after this.
