am using outlook 2002,, after a recent pst file crash i reset outlook by
making a new pst file which works fine

the problem is the adddress good,, when i click on address book no contacts
are listed,, to get the contacts list i have to click on the address book,,
got into tools and select one of the 5 contact books listed, have tried
clicking on remove to get rid of any empty address books but although they go
off the list initially when i go back in they are still their

how do i get rid of all the "dead" address books

Just remove the invalid entries here:
Tools > E-mail accounts > View or change existing directories or address
books > Outlook Address Book > Change.

Actually, it's not very obvious. That's why few users find it on their own
and it's one of the most frequently asked questions here.
