Comment:
I continue to get error msg. whenever I create an e-mail and click on "to" -- no access to Contacts. Error reads: Microsoft Office Word (2003) Messaging interface has returned unknown error..." I've tried "repair" but it still doesn't work. I also could not create a Distribution List in Contacts. Nothing happened. (This worked recently but I can't get it to work today.) Can you help me? I need to send documents that I create in Word (2003) but can't do this now.

Disable Word as the email editor. Do you then receive the same error?

I'm not exactly sure how to disable Word as the email editor. But I did this (in Outlook 2003). Tools/Options/Mail Format/ and I unchecked "Use Microsoft Office Word 2003 to edit messages." Nothing different happened. Same error.
You might want to know that I can reply to emails but I cannot generate a new e-mail address from Contacts.

So you click on To and you get the Microsoft Word error? Did you close and reopen Outlook after disabling Word as the email editor?

Must not be too much of an issue.

Yes, it's a serious issue. I've been very sick and away from the computer. I reinstalled Outlook and still have the same problem. But I believe I'd rather not deal with someone who is as snide as you are. Forget it. I'll ask another expert elsewhere.
