Default Select Members / Address book problems

I recently got a new computer with Outlook 2002. I moved my O2K outlook.pst
file to the new computer, but now the "select members" button on the
distribution list creation window returns this message:

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



However, when I'm creating an email, it automatically fills in the name.



There is only one "contacts" folder in the file.



What do I need to do to get the "Select Members" button to offer contacts
from my contact list?



Thanks,

Ralph

You must not have migrated your data correctly.
Now you'll need to reconfigure your Outlook Address Book:
