When I try to enter a name from my addres book, the
entries for fax and email apppear seperately, although in
contacts they are on one card.

I cannot use the auto addressing feature becaudse of this.

Anybody have an answer.

Thanks

Posted several times daily in this group. You can't use addressing because
of this? Why not?

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:
