When i select a e_mail or fax recipient, contacts with
both e-mail address and a fax number are listed twice.
I use outlook 2002 connected to sbs server 2000 and i
need to use both e-mail and fax.
Can you help me?

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:
