Outlook Address Book

I imported a PST file from my computer at work to my home computer. Work uses
exchange server, home does not. When starting an email, clicking on "To", I
get the message:"The Address Book could not be displayed. The Contacts Folder
asssociated with this address list could not be opened; it may have been
moved or deleted, or you do not have permissions. For information on how to
remove this folder from the Outlook Address Book, see Microsoft Outlook Help."
I do not want to remove the data that is in the folder to be removed per
instructions. What can I edit to be able to use the Contacts - Address Book
for my email? All data is displayed in the Contacts Folder.

That's because you imported the pst file. If you'd lurked on any of the
Outlook groups you would have speedily seen that import is NOT recommended
for transferring Outlook data - you have probably corrupted your Outlook
profile.
In Control Panel-Mail, create a new profile, and add the existing pst file
to it. See if that helps...
