When the address book button is pressed, I receive a message that the book cannot be opened. "try reinstalling Outlook express". After reinstalling 3 times and OS win98 once, I still get same message. When I execute the file from Win explorer I get message the the file is not an address book file. Can anyone help?

Close outlook express. Move the address book out of its location. Re open Outlook Express. You should get a blank address book. try importing your contacts from the original. If that doesn't work then you're address book is well and truly corrupt and you will have to re-create it.
