I had to wipe out my comuter so I copy the outlook.pst and I have 2 additinal
.pst from before. I using Outlook 2003. I re-installed Outlook 2003 and I
copied over the original outlook.pst with no messages. I then copied over
my
outlook.pst file that contained all my messages, sent etc contacts.
Everthing is there. I can see all my contacts. However, I now get the
error

The address list could not be displayed. The Contacts Folder associated
with this address list could not be opened; it may have been moved or
delted,
or you do not have permissions. For information on how to remove this
folder
from the OUtlook Address Book, see Microsoft Office Outlook Help.

You migrated your data inporoperly. Never overwrite one PST with another of
the same name and never import a PST when the purpose is migrating that PST
from one Outlook instance to another. You need a new mail profile now.
