Address book not working right!!

When I want to do a new message, I click new, & then To: to open my address book. I scroll down to the name I want. The first time I click on it the address book jumps back up to the top of the list. I scroll back down to the name I want, double click on it again, it shows up in the To: line at the bottom, but when I click on OK, everything just locks up for about 45-90 seconds. It will not even cancel or close the address book during that time. Eventually it starts working & I can close the address book. The only way I seem to be able to put an address in the To: line of the message, is to do it manually. Is this a known bug?? Is there anything I can do to fix it?? I am running Windows XP, & WLM Beta 14.0.5027.0908.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Address book not working right!!

Yes, that's a known bug in the beta version (14.0.5027.0908).
As a workaround, I click in the To line and start typing the name of the
recipient, which you can complete from the contacts list that pops up.
