Thanks Russ.

I only seem to have one contacts folder anyway... I can search for other
records and find them okay... it's just that new ones go into a black hole...
I sync okay with my Sony Ericsson P910i and the record transfers onto that
without a hassle, it's just the search does not work... What next?

Not normal behavior.
Ensure that you know which Contacts Folder you are adding the Contacts to
and that this folder has been enabled as an email address book in its
properties.

For some reason, contacts I have added recently cannot be found using the
search function. Has something changed in recent times in Outlook with
the
various security patches? This has not been the case in the past... Help!
