Insert address in Word document

[tb]

How do I insert an addressee's information (say from my Outlook contacts) or some other address book into a Word document so that I do not have to manually type the information in each time I am writing a letter

Thanks

How do I insert an addressee's information (say from my Outlook contacts) or some other address book into a Word document so that I do not have to manually type the information in each time I am writing a letter?

Which version of Word?

[Insert address]

Hello: I got the exact same question, I am using Word 2000. The options available under tool/labels and envelopes appear to allow insertion of an address into a label or invalid, but not directly to the document

This is a simple operation to accomplish in WordPerfect, I'm surprised that I can't find an equivalent in Word

Arthur keystroke shortcuts that will accomplish this, both for opening the address book and for inserting the address? Is it possible

Thanks very much

 

[Insert address]

Sorry -- there were a couple of typos in my last e-mail -- "I've got", not "I got"; "insertion of an address into a label or invalid" was supposed to be "insertion of an address into a label or envelope

Typos notwithstanding, I'd still love to get an answer to this

Thanks

I got the exact same question, I am using Word 2000. The options available under

tool/labels and envelopes appear to allow insertion of an address into a label or
invalid, but not directly to the document.You can pull the "InsertAddress" command out of Tools/Customize/Commands, category
"All commands". Drag it to the toolbar or menu where you'd like to have it, or
assign a keyboard shortcut to it
