WAB.DLL is missing from my Outlook 200 Where do I get this

[Missing Outlook file]

I had to reinstall Office 2000 after some severe problems. I can not use the
address book because I am missing a wab.dll file. Where do I get this file.
I have tried installing Outlook several time without it putting in the
missing file.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

Wab.dll (Windows Address Book) is an operating system file, not an Office file. It should be on your O/S disk - unless you're using
Vista, which no longer includes it.

A known issue on Vista since Vista does not use the Windows Address Book:
