Office Outlook, can't search contact in local folder

Office Outlook, can't search contact in local folder

A friend, at work, has a folder contacts (with his personal contacts) in his local *.pst folder, When he writes a new message, whet he click on To.. it opens only the company's contacts. Also, i have noticed that when I click properties on his local folder, go to Outlook Addreess Book, the "Name of this address book" checkbox is unchecked and disabled. How can I repair this, so he can use his personal contacts folder?

"Problem solved:
(As I mentioned this is for Office Outlook 2003)

open Tools/E-Mail Accounts
add new direcory or address book
aditional address book
select Outlook Address Book and click next
go back to the original folder (in contacts)
open properties
in ""Outlook Address Book"" tab check the ""Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book""
hit ok and problem solved
