Link Windows Fax and Scan with Outlook 2007 Contacts

[JSneade]

I have a customer where I just set up Fax Services on his Windows 2008 SBS server. I set up on his local account by going into Windows Fax and Scan on his Windows 7 Business machine. Tools>Fax Accounts clicked Add...>'Connect to a fax server on my network' then typed in the SBS server name and so on. The Windows Fax and Scan works, however when selecting New Fax and then clicking on the 'To:' I expected to get the address book from Outlook and did not. When I set this up, the same way, on the Windows Vista machines it worked correctly.
Contacts are working correctly from Outlook
I set up 4 other machines [Windows 7 Business] and all others are the same - No Outlook Contacts
Verified that Default Programs>Set your default programs>Outlook had all checked (per Internet threads)
User is administration of the local machine as well as the domain

How can I link the Windows Fax and Scan contacts to Outlook 2007 Contacts & AD like it is on the Vista machine?

Thank you,

Jack Sneade
