Outlook 2003, Contacts folder duplicated

I'm using WinXP, sp2, OfficeXP, and Outlook 2003. After installing Outlook 2003, I have not been able to get my Contacts set as the contacts that Outlook uses for new e-mails. When I click the To: button on a new message, I get the error "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." After clicking OK on that dialog box, I get the Select Names dialog box. The "Show Names from the:" combo box has three listings of "Contacts" in the drop down list. If I select the third "Contacts" in the list, I get my list of contacts. AND, in the Folder List panel, I have 3 listings of "Original - Personal Folder - Dup Copy ". How do I get my Contacts to be the one Outlook think I should be using, and how do I get rid of the other two?
Thanks,

 

Try going into tools> email accounts
Then under directory, choose view or change existing directories or address books
Then see what's listed and edit as necessary.

 

Thank you! That got me to the area I needed to be to fix it.

 

Glad it worked. Thanks for the update.
