Word Envelopes & Labels

[julieb]

I recently upgrades from Word 2000 to Word 2002. In Word 2000, I could click
on envelopes and labels and if I wanted to insert an address from my Outlook
Contacts list, I could just click on the address icon, type in a name, click
on OK, and it would put the person's name and address in the field.

In Word 2002, when I click on the address icon, I have to change the address
list to Contacts, and when I type in the person's name, I get the email
address (not the name of the person), and the mailing address when I click on
OK.

1. Can I have Word default to my Contacts List?
2. How do I get the person's name (instead of their email address) to
appear in the field?

Thanks for any direction you can give me on this.

Although I don't have Outlook 2002 here to check, you should be able to set
the address list to contacts if you start the Address Book from Outlook then
Tools > Options.

Outlook must be the default e-mail application.

You can control what parts of the contact informnation are displayed with an
AddressLayout autotext entry - see http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm
