Outlook 2002 - Two Questions - Need Help!

[Jules]

I have two questions Re: Outlook 2002 I'm hoping you can help me with:

1) First, I've messed up my default view for Contacts (Address Cards) and I
was wondering how I can get it set back to the default setting/view

2) When I try to print address labels (using Word - Mail Merge Wizard), I'm
trying to use my Contacts list, but the data keeps coming up blank in the
word document when I try to "Preview your labels". However, I know the
Contacts list is populated. Note: When I click on "Address Block" (under
Arrange Your Labels) and then click on [Match Fields...] the data suggests
it's (not available) and if I click on the drop-down arrow, the other
available attributes are not the right ones either.

Hope this makes sense. Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you, #1 worked like a charm.

As for #2, these setting were already in place. Any other ideas for me to
try? Thanks again!
