Hi Flor I have been having the same problem with my address book but in outlook. I tried the same steps that you gave to jenny but when I pressed l for layout nothing happened. Can you help.

Now tab to "contacts" which is probably not checked. Check it with spacebar. Your address book should now show up, after the list view of messages, when you press tab. ----- Original Message ----- From: "janeobrien" <jeobrien5@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, November 05, 2008 5:40 PM Subject: [vip_students] address book hi folks, can anyone tell me how my address book in outlook express can be accessed automatically while tabbing from my inbox instead of using control-shift-B many thanks in advance. jenny _____ I am using the Free version of SPAMfighter <http://www.spamfighter.com/len> We are a community of 5.6 million users fighting spam.
