Disabling offline address book

J

Jose M. Dominguez

Hello,

I've got Outlook 2003 sp1 working with OAB enabled, but as I'm working now
as an administrator I want to have access to the real address book (online).

I've gone to Tools --> options --> mail setup --> send/receive --> edit the
account I'm working with and then I have unchecked the download OAB check.

Sadly, I still work with the offline version, and I can't manage to have
access to the online one.

Does anyone know how I can change this?

Thank You
Jose M. Dominguez

I think you also need to delete the .oab files that have already been copied to your machine.
