------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jun 25 21:18:04 +0000 2008 ------- I tried to create an OOo database connected to my Windows Vista built-in address book. Specifically, I used the Database Wizard, connect to an existing database, chose "Microsoft Windows Address Book" and went on to create a file tmp.odb open in Base. But when I now choose View > Database Objects > Tables, I get no tables, just a message box [OpenOffice.org Base] The connection to the data source "tmp" could not be established. No Outlook Express Addressbook Exists. [OK] I have tried this on Vista Home Premium 64-bit, where I have also checked that there are some "contacts" (as Vista calls them) defined. And on another computer using Vista Business 32-bit. Both fail in the same way. The same procedure works nicely on Windows XP. I think OOo should be able to connect to the Vista contacts database. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
