You are welcome, sorry we were unable to get on the same page.

No, the thread will automatically close in 45 days.

Another option would be to drag all the messages out of that Personal Folders and consolidate them into another Personal Folders. Leaving the stuck message behind.
Then close the Personal Folders from Outlook 2003 using: Right click > Close "Personal Folders"

You can close the other Personal Folders in the same way.

The Practice Personal Folders will remain as your Default Delivery Location.
If you want to rename "Practice" to something else, you can do that.
Though I don't see Practice in your Personal Folders list.



If you change your mind later, just post back to this thread.


Good luck!

I also edited my earlier post with additional steps should you want to try posting a screen shot in the future.
Doesn't hurt to know these things.

Guess what I am back. I have learnt a lot through your help. I did what you said moved messages out of personal folders to another personal folders then closed that personal folders with the stuck message!!! Thanks Now one more problem when I go to new e mail it comes up then I push To: and it comes up with a box that says No Entries in this Address book. I can go to my Contacts before hand and copy the address and then past it but it is easier the other way. Is there something small I can do to get that back.

[EAFiedler]

Should be a snap to do.


In Outlook 2003:
Go > Folder List

Right click on the Contacts folder containing your contacts:
Properties > Outlook Address Book tab
Place a check mark in: Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book
Apply, OK to save and close.

Open a new message and press the To: button, your Contacts should appear.

Let us know if that works for you or not.

I did exactly what you said. When I opened up new message and pressed to this is what came up in a box:
"The address list could not be displayed. The contacts folder associated with this address list could not be opened; it may have been moved or deleted, or you do not have
permissions" I then pushed ok and up pops a box that says Select Names Contacts comes up in that and nothing there When I push the little arrow there are three things in it Outlook Address Book then Contacts and then another contacts under it. If I click on the next contacts they are there but that is a pain to go through that each time.
And for your information when I click on the contact file they are in there.

The second Contacts list is probably left over from the Personal Folders containing the stuck message. To get rid of it, you will need to uninstall and reinstall the Outlook Address Book, which is fairly simple and it will give you a clean slate for the Outlook Address Book.


This link shows the steps for removing and reinstalling the Outlook Address Book:
"The address list could not be displayed" error message when you use your Contacts to address a new message in Outlook


After reinstalling the Outlook Address Book you will be adding the Contacts folder back into the Address Book.


Let us know how that goes.

guess what!! It fixed it, so easy to follow and wow it is fixed. Also a bit earlier I had done a restore to original settings as thought I messed up some stuff. Well when I had done that my newer e mail addresses was not there so I undid the restore and got them back. My friend or enemy was also back the attachment that was stuck. I thought ok well I will go through what you told me before but just happened to click on it and push delete and it DELETED and is gone!!! So I am up and running thanks so much to you. Appreciate sooooooooo much your patience and help. You stuck with me and saw me through and I have learnt a lot even through this. 56 and still able to learn. Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I also printed off some of your instructions etc. in case I need it in the future!
