Okay, you mean on a new mail message. Gotcha.
Sounds like you don't have the Outlook Address Book Service correctly installed. Remove and reinstall it, closing Outlook between removal and reinstallation.
As for the sub-contacts folders, right click each one and on the properties tab, enable each as an Outlook Address Book.
How did you create an Address Book? They are simply virtual views of your Contacts folder(s) and have no separate existence.

| Thanks for getting back to me.
| I have just updated from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2007 (when changing
| to a
| new computer).
| In Outlook 2000 I had one list of Contacts with sub-directories that
| serviced the address requirements of emails sent from Outlook 2000.
| In Outlook 2007 I can't get the email system to look at the Contacts
| at all. I have had to create a separate Address Book for emails!
| Is that a better explantion?
| Do you know how to "share" the Contacts with the email system in
| Outlook 2007? Robert
