problem in outlook aspect

[jekko]

hello, I used to work with outlook express wich have the following aspect



So with the "contacts" in the lower left side of the screen.

Then at work we changed with outlook 2007 and I have this screen:


so now in the lower left side of the screen there are a many useless buttons (for me). There is a button that open the address book but i don't feel confortable to open another window to get the email addresses.

Is there a way in outlook 2007 to have the list of my contacts (email addresses) always visible in the lower left side of the screen just like outlook express?

Thank you very much.
