I use my contact folder extensively. It used to search (find) email addresses in the contact form to link to a contact where I didn't have a name associated with it. After doing a re-install, it won't search the email field for addresses entered into it. Thanks.

If memory serves me, your question was asked about when an other too similar discussion was ongoing.
Best of luck,

Bob,
That questions had to do with recovering an Outlook crash.
Now that the recovery is complete, I am having a problem getting the contact email address field available to be searched. I try to find an email address in one of the contact items, but it won't do it. It will only find name, address and company.
Thanks,
Jerry
This was someone else's discussion and I offer that as to why yours may have gathered so few responses.
Now that you have recovered a bit. Try a backup of your Outlook information (I use google.com and OL2000 BACKUP for the procedure) then wipe outlook out with the Office Removal Tools, and start fresh.
Bob
Thank you very much for the assistance. I'm not the greatest techie type and was a bit concerned about doing the procedure but was able to do an uninstall and reinstall and now it works great. Thanks, jerry
