I was entering a new contact when all of a sudden, any information I tried to
enter would not enter and I would hear a bell. I've been using contacts for
years and have never had this problem. How do I get it to work again
 
Impossible to know. Tell us the steps you used to break it.
Nothing happens "all of a sudden" for no reason. There is more to this story
you are leaving out. Include the steps you have used to get things working
again, Outlook version, and information store.
 
I closed the program and re-opened it again, twice. I tried several names to
see if it was just the one person I could not enter. It was everyone.

Later that evening, I found out that the Num Lock was off, which I never
turn off. It appears that was my problem. Thank you for the response.

I may have responded in the wrong box. I closed down the program twice, and
also tried to enter other people thinking maybe it was just this one person.
It was all of them. Later, during the evening I discovered my Num Lock was
off, which appeared to be the problem. Thank you for your response.
