Solve : Outlook Express 6 Address Book problem? |
|
Answer» I'm having a problem with my ADDRESS book in my Outlook Express... i got 2 computers running the same exact version, but only one seems to have the following bug. In the address book table there are 4 columns - Office, Company, Name and Email.What, exactly, do you mean by address book table? What table? "Table" is not an OE address book term, as far as I know, and I've used OE a long time. So, it seems you're using your own terminology here. keyven........ Your going to have to LEARN to be a little more specific about the issue ......... It sounds LIKE you are trying to edit the address book ...but I'm not certain ............ If you cant explain it ...please take a screen shot and post it .....Then we will know exactly what your refering to. I think you will find that your outlook is working as it was designed. dl65 Quote QuoteIn the address book table there are 4 columns - Office, Company, Name and Email.What, exactly, do you mean by address book table? What table? "Table" is not an OE address book term, as far as I know, and I've used OE a long time. So, it seems you're using your own terminology here. By table, i meant a tabular view of your Name, Email, etc, etc. It is a little like Windows Explorer (using View-->Details), where you can sort by clicking on the headings Anyways I discovered the solution: 1) Open Address Book 2) Under the Address Book window, clicked on Tools -> Options 3) There are 2 options under a new window, Data Sharing: i) Something to the effect of keeping your contacts in the Microsoft Outlook Contacts Folder ii) Something to the effect of keeping your contacts in the Outlook Address Book (.wab) file So it turns out the first one had been selected, and so i had the problem mentioned earlier, as well as not being able to import/export the contacts. Once I changed it to the second option, everything worked perfectly fine. Thanks for trying to help. Sorry if i wasn't clear enough. Quote keyven........
