Default Outlook.pst 2002

I moved my outlook.pst file from one machine to another.
Everything works good (other then defaults which I fixed)
except for my address book (using the "To" on new emails.

I tried a suggestion from this link

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;287563&Product=ol2003

and I can get the address book to work, but I have to
change it every time I try to use it. from Contacts to
the new re-named address book.

On my old computer, it just brought up the Contact list
as the address book. Is there anyway I can get that to
work the same way? Thanks

The option to do this is under tool in the Address Book. For
convenience, I would suggest changing the name of your new Contact.

You can change the name of your contact by right clicking on the
Contacts Folder in Outlook.-- Properties -- Outlook Address Book. I'm
sure you already have the check mark to use this contact. Now change the
name to something new like "My Contacts". Click OK to save the changes.

Now go to Tools -- Address Book -- Tools. From here change all the
defaults and search orders to your new contact name.
