Hi Russ:
Thanks for your time. Now I fully understand the autofill cache vs. the address book. I'm getting what your saying about the address book view with relation to the contacts but when I look at the email of one of the contacts in question I can't see any reason the electronic address would NOT be resolved. I don't have any other folders but one "Personal Folders" for all contacts so as best I can tell there is no reason why "M. Lami" wouldn't be in the address book view with most other contacts. It's perplexing to me. If you have time to view the video of me trying to access certain emails from the address book view that would give you all the information you need to assist me further. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xpb5958h2o Ciao Darrell |

Why is your "Address Book" field set to "Outlook Address Book" when you open
or search the Outlook Address Book? You never use that setting. You must set that field to the Contacts Folder you want to display. If you were configured correctly, the Outlook Address Book display should be completely empty. It is merely the shell for your Contact Folders. There is far more to your story than you have told. You are using the Outlook Address Book interface for far more than it was intended. All Contact data manipulation and all searching should be done in Contacts Folders, not the address book view. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "brainstewn" wrote in message ...

Hi Russ:
I haven't customized anything with regard to the outlook address book. So if its wrong that's the way it was installed unwittingly. How do I fix it, google provides no help nor do the key words I'm using for the forum provide steps after Jan 2007. I know the duplicate posts are annoying but I created a post titled: "how to set the address book to the contacts folder vs. outlook address book" Ciao Darrell |

It's pretty simple, and has been posted here many times. You set which
folder to display in Tools Options of the Address Book view. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "brainstewn" wrote in message ...

OK I've been there a gazillion times but this is all I have to choose from: Show this address book first ~ Outlook address book Accounts Business contacts Outlook Address book ~ Keep personal addresses in Accounts Business contacts Outlook Address book ~ Add address list Outlook Address book Accounts Business contacts Outlook Address book I've tried every options and combination before ever persuing help on this discussion board and I see no "contacts" option and never have until your latest post of even cluing me in that there was one. If you would like a video I will make and send you one. |

I don't need a video. I just need plain, straightforward information, which
you keep leaving out. State how your profile is configured. Are you using Business Contacts Manager instead of Outlook? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "brainstewn" wrote in message news Russ: OK I've been there a gazillion times but this is all I have to choose from: Show this address book first ~ Outlook address book Accounts Business contacts Outlook Address book ~ Keep personal addresses in Accounts Business contacts Outlook Address book ~ Add address list Outlook Address book Accounts Business contacts Outlook Address book I've tried every options and combination before ever persuing help on this discussion board and I see no "contacts" option and never have until your latest post of even cluing me in that there was one.

Hi Russ:
Thanks for helping! I'm not sure how to be more plain than the info I gave you below or in my latest post. You told me that I have Outlook 2007 configured wrong when I have done anything to configure it its just as I installed it. Plus I don't see what your referring to in Address book view, tools, options I see what I posted below which is not what you said should be there. I feel like I'm going in circles, I consider myself computer savvy and all conspicuous options are not working. Ciao Darrell "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: I don't need a video.

Hi Russ:
I have not even started using business contact manager, I just installed it for future use if I use it all as my primary CRM is Maximizer 9 which has a feature that sends and receives desired contacts to outlook.

You've changed the entire landscape by installing BCM. You'll need to ask in
a BCM group. Your dialogs in the address book view are beyond recognition for Outlook users like me. We would have no idea how to troubleshoot your issues. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "brainstewn" wrote in message ... Hi Russ: Thanks for helping!

Ok so if there is no address book and its just a view of contacts how come the address book doesn't have contacts in there that are in contacts and on autofill? Because your autocompletion cache is just a record of the addresses you've entered as recipient addresses and does not access your Contacts in any way whatsoever.
