Default Vista 64 Search is not seeing any of my Outlook 2003 contacts.

Dave,

Never mind. I think I have it all figured out.

I don't recommend doing what is suggested below - it won't make any
difference as Outlook is searched through the MAPI mail interfaces not
through the file system. Is e-mail in Outlook searchable, but just contacts
don't work, or is neither searchable? If you open the Indexing Options
Control Panel and click Modify, do you see Microsoft Office Outlook and if
you expand that node do you see your mail stores listed?

Vista search {32- or 64-bit} should search Outlook contacts. But note if you
have a company-wide Global Address Book that won't be searched.

I just installed Vista 64. Search is working fine and pulls up tif's and

Is there some setttings that I need to change? I have already had the
index
start over from scratch and that didn't solve the problem. Will the 64
bit
system just not find 32 bit Outlook files?


Hi Chunnel,

You might try adding or including the file type and folders for Outlook
to what will be Indexed. You can look at this link for how to do it.
It may do the trick for you.
