contact trouble

[em_CT]

I have a contact folder with about 800 contacts, but when I want to get an
address to put in an e-mail, it show an empty folder and a message saying
they could not be displayed. I then click OK and another window opens with a
choice of folders and there I find another CONTACT folder. How can I combine
these two?

I guess there are CONTACTS and ADDRESS BOOK, I was under the impression they
were the same. It does not show in the folder list, where does it reside?

Is there a way to combine them?

I went trough the help menu, no luck.

They are one in the same.
Post your Outlook version if you have a question.

Then somehow you've managed to corrupt the settings of the Outlook Address
Book. Examine your settings and make sure they conform to the ones here:

Russ, Thank you, that did the trick.
That document also explains why I did not see all the contacts in the
folder.
