Contact Problems

[Jeremy]

I have Office XP.

1. File then click on New Message
2. Click on the TO button
3. Brings up a box called Select names

This box shows all the contacts that you have put in. The ones at least that you put Fax numbers and E-mail accounts for. I was wondering if you make it show only the names with E-mail address and not the ones with fax numbers.

Thanks for the help.

The standard behavior for the Outlook Address book is to display all
electronic addresses (both fax and e-mail). That behavior cannot be changed.
The only way to prevent the display of fax numbers is to store them in a
different field or to disguise them (e.g., precede them with an alpha
character) so that Outlook won't recognize them as phone numbers.
There are also a number of utilities available that can do this for you
automatically. Some are listed here:
