Default No contacts appear in the “Select Names” dropdown list

I just recently bought a new computer and imported my Outlook 2003 files
(outlook.pst) from the old computer to my new one.

Both computers are running Windows XP Home, Office XP Pro 2003 and Outlook
2003 (11.8010.8036) SP2.

So far it appears everything went as it should except no contacts appear in
the “Select Names” dropdown list when I click on the “To:” icon.

In the “Show names from the:” dropdown box the following is displayed:
Outlook Address Book
Contacts
Personal Address Book

Clicking on any of these 3 options does nothing.

Nothing under the “Advanced” Button has any effect either.

I’m sure there must be a simple fix but I can’t find it. Would appreciate
some help.

Cheers,
David
