auto-populating the company name field when creating a new contact

[ASF]

I've been manually creating several new contacts all from the same company
and it's a bit tedious. Is there a way to use/create a drop down menu box to
help populate some of the various fields such as the Company name field or
others?

I've been copying/pasting the company name from a newly made contact to the
nxt new one I'm making.
Thanks-

That option on the Action menu is greyed out.

Got it!

Thanks a ton!

Select a contact from the company in question, go to the Actions menu and
choose "New contact from Same Company"

Version of Outlook?

is the earlier contact selected when you go to Actions, New contact... ?
If it’s a series of new contacts, use drop down on the Save and New button -
Save and new from same company.
