Outlook 2003 Address Book

[Guest]

Outlook 2003 shows "Outlook Address Book" and "Contacts" when I click on the
Address Book icon in Outlook 2003. When I click on "Outlook Address Book"
the message displayed is "No entries in this Address Book." If I attempt to
add a new entry to the Outlook Address Book the message displayed is "You
cannot create entries for this Address Book." If I click on my Address Book
from the Desktop I can read all my entries and make new entries, etc. My
Windows Address Book is located: C:\Documents and Settings\Wayne
Mock\Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book\Wayne Mock.wab. What is the
problem?

The problem is that you don't understand that the address book in Outlook
does not exist. It is simply a view of your Contacts Folder. All data entry
and editing is done there. You should be displaying your Contacts Folder in
the Address Book view and doing all your data entry and editing in Outlook's
Contacts Folder.
