I started getting message the other day that windows couldn't open outlook.
I looked it up and ended up creating a new profile. I then opened my old
outlook.pst file and moved the contents of the old inbox and sent box to
the new inbox and sent box.

Problem is my address book is empty. Where is my old address book? How can I
incorporate it in the new profile?

Did you configure it to show your current Contacts Folder?

I have worked through this but got nowhere. When I use step 1 there is an
address book there so I close.

When I get to step 2 and go to folder the only option is 'inbox'. When I
click on that, there's nothing that mentions address book.

Have you tried right-clicking on the "old" address book that you've
imported, select "properties" and there should be a checkbox in there
somewhere for "show this as an Outlook Address Book" or some such
verbiage.

Where exactly do I right click on? I'm not aware that I've imported the old
address book.
