categories disappeared from View by Category

[dc]

The majority of my Category/Contacts have disappeared from
View By Category or the drop down box. The information
still seems to be in place in Find/Advanced Search. How
can I restore these Categories/Contacts into the View By
Category system? Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds more like a damaged view to me. Try starting Outlook once with the
/cleanviews command line switch. This switch (and a few other really helpful
ones) are discussed here:
