Custom Contacts not in Address Book

[wyngarden]

Please help! I'm using outlook 2003 and a customized contact form
published in a personal contact folder. I'm using a .pst not
exchange.

I modified the MessageClass of all the contacts in my Contacts Folder
(with VBA) to have a class that matches my customized form
"IPM.Contact.Mine". I've also set the properties on the folder to use
my form as a default.

When I click on the To: button of an email msg the contacts I converted
to the new msg class show up but not the ones that have been modified
by the custom form or created with it. They all show the same
MessageClass in a table view. New contacts show up with a post icon
and not the email contact icon (I don't care about that) Their size is
around 1k.

How can I get my customized contacts to show up in the Address Book
tool?

Thanks,

-- Joel

The one thing that would keep contacts out of the address book display would
be the lack of an electronic address. If you open one of these contacts, is
the email address underlined? Is there a fax number?

That's it exactly. I wasn't populating those fields while I was testing
this. Thanks!
