Here's an interesting development. As I mentioned earlier, (above), I
use both OL & OLE. I noticed that Outlook has my personal address
book loaded under "Contacts" But I have sub-folders with personal
contacts listed there. So I deleted all the contacts from the
"Contacts" folder which was fine. However, I noticed that Outlook
Express Address book disappeared after I deleted the contacts from the
OL "Contacts" folder. That tells me the two are related somehow. I
can re-import the personal address book back into OLE but I don't want
them to be inserted into OL. But I noticed after awhile they do insert
back into OL. So what's up with that?
Do you have this Registry key?...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
\Software
\Microsoft
\WAB
\WAB4
If not, STOP; If so, is there a DWORD named UseOutlook (NB: no space) and is
its value set to 1 (one)?
If not, STOP; If so, Address Book is configured to share contacts with
Outlook, even if you don't use it (can happen with the install of Office).
Change the value to 0 (zero), Address Book should be available to you and
all should be well. (If that DWORD is not present, don't create it, and
don't alter any other DWORD values.)
Note that any changes (additions, deletions, edits) made while sharing was
enabled will not be available (displayed) in Address Book when sharing is
disabled.

I checked the registry. 4 DWORD's exist. FirstRun (1);
OlkContactRefresh (0); OlkFolderRefresh (0); and UseOutlook (1). I
changed UseOutlook to (0). That did the trick. Thank you.
