Was hoping one of you computer experts out there could help me with a slight problem Im having. I am using Outlook Express for my email and all of a sudden I cant get into my address book. I cant add anyone to it or access it in any way.. Any ideas would be helpful.

Make sure that under the accounts tab, that you still have your e mail account set up.

What operating system are you using? What version of Outlook express is it? XP keeps the address book in the Documents and Settings folder. If you have a earlier version of Outlook, before 6.0, you could download the latest Internet Explorer/Outlook from Microsoft. That would repair the Outlook problem. You could also look through Add/Remove programs, depending on the operating system you may have a 'repair' option.

Deadeye..Im pretty sure Im running 6.0 cause my computer is only a year old. Im using windows xp

Try the repair option in add/remove programs. You could also do a system restore, just pick a day before your addresses disappeared. If this thread gets closed down, because it isn't RC related, sign up over at www.pcmech.com ,and post the question there. It is an excellent technical forum.

www.techsupportboard.net is another forum that might be of assistance. Hope you find an answer at one of these sites. As Deadeye mentioned, this is not RC related, so I'll be closing this one.
