If it helps, one more observation.
I can open a New Message, type in 3-4 letters of a contact's name, hit
'CC:' and the name appears in Address Book with email address filled
in.

"Hit CC"? do you mean click the Cc button just below the To button? What do you see when you click To? What's in the "Show names from the" drop-down?

"Type ahead' doesn't finish the name but at least CC: can find
it. However, if I type in 3-4 letters of a contact's name and hit
'Address Book,' Outlook can't find the email address.
How can CC: find the email address in Address Book when I type in a
partial name, but Address Book seems to think it is empty?

I'm confused. Clicking Cc brings up the Address Book, so how does the address book not find it?

First, I need to say what I mean.
Wwhen I type in 3-4 letters of a contact's name in the 'TO:' box (or whatever it is), Outlook fills in s the contact's email address. However, if, instead of typing a contact's name, I hit 'Address Book,' or 'TO:,' Outlook shows an empty Address Book.
So, to me, Outlook can find a Contact if I just start typing a name, but it indicates to me the Address Book is empty. Just seems it has to be getting that Contact's name from somewhere for it to find a name by 3-4 characters.
