OK I was able to export & import as you described. All
appeared to work fine. However; the imported addresses are
not visible in OUTLOOK COntacts after a successful import.
What must be done to make them visible?

Names are not visible in the Contacts list or in the
address. Although I find multiple files of my addresses
when I search address book.

Here's something alse intersting about this problem. If I
have a new email open and type in a first name and then
click on the find button it says there is no match.
However, if I'm on the main OUTLOOK page and put a name in
the search box at the top the OUTLOOK page the file card
window appears for that name with all the sdata there.
So it seems my CONTACTS are all working OK, it's just that
them name s& addresses aren't visible in the addresss book.

OK, as long as the contacts are appearing in the Contacts folder, it
should be a fairly simple process to get them to show up in your Address
Book.
Go to Tools | E-mail accounts, select "View or change existing
directories or address books", and click OK. If you don't see "Outlook
Address Book" in the Directories and Address Books list, click the Back
button, then select "Add a new directory or address book", then
"Additional Address Books", and add the OAB. Then keep clicking Back
until you get back to the first dialog box, and go back to the
Directories and Address Books list as you did earlier.
Once the OAB appears in the list, select it and then click Change to
make sure the Contacts folder(s) you want to display are listed. If any
of them aren't listed, you'll need to enable those Contacts folders as
Outlook Address Books by right clicking the folder, selecting
Properties, clicking the Outlook Address Book tab, and checking the
"Show this folder as an E-mail address book" box. Make sure you restart
Outlook after making these changes.

Did everything exactly as you specified. Still no old
names appear in Address Book, even though they do appear
in the Contact folder

That's strange...I don't know of any other way to do it other than what
I told you to do. Tell me this: Do you have your Folder List visible?
If not, go to View | Folder List and enable it. When it's visible,
click on the Contacts folder. Do you see the contacts there? Also,
when you open a new message, is it the To button you click on when
you're trying to address the message? (You mentioned the "Find"
button...)

Yes, I can see ALL of my names and addresses in the
Contacts folder.
When I send an email I usually enter the person's first
name and let it auto fill. If I have more than one first
name the same it will show them all and then I select the
one I want. By doing this it will sow a list of All my
addresses - even the ones not visible in the addresss
book.
If I select To: all that appears I the names in the
addresss book that I ahve added since this problem
started.

Well, I tried importing my addresses from OLE again. For
some reason now they all appear in the address book. I did
the import exactly like before. Go figure. Thanks for your
time & help.
