I'm using Outlook 2003.  I want to send an email to several persons who work
for the same company.  I've added these users to my Contacts folder (Outlook
Address Book). Say I start a new message, click  on the Address Book icon,
select 'Contacts' in the 'Show Names from the:' field.  Next, the 'Select
Names' window shows me only the following fields: Name, Display Name, Email
Address, and Email type.  How can I add 'Company Name' to this view?  And,
how do I sort by company name?

Thanks!

Table views in Outlook enable you to manipulate data. Turn on the Advanced
toolbars, change to the Phone List view (not Address Cards) and then use the
Field Chooser to show the field you want.  Now you can sort by clicking that
column header.  You can also go to By Company view in some versions.

Everyone - turn on your Advanced Toolbars and learn how to use the Field
Chooser and Group by Box!!

Thanks Judy, this is helpful, but I'm still baffled as to why I can view
Name, Business Phone, Company, .... details about records in the GAL, but can
only see Name, Display Name, Email and Email type when viewing my own
Contacts folder (specifically, when accessed via New Msg --> To... --> Show
names from...
A work around is to display contacts as phone list (as you indicated), sort
by company, and select contacts I want to send a msg to.
Thanks again!
