How can I turn omit the words "United States of America" which is added as
the last line by the Contacts app when I use an address from Outlook
Contacts to address an envelope in Word? This is a waste of ink.

You've posted no information. State your Outlook version and where it is
that the country designation is appearing that it "wastes ink."

The words appear after the city, state and zip code line of the address.
Outlook is 2002 with SP2.

Not really getting any closer, are you?
In the line of the address where?
The County/Region Field in the Contact Record is of no consequence. Explain
why you think it is.

Sorry. If you post no information, I can't provide you any.
If you think your post contained a question, it did not.
Please learn how to express yourself more clearly.
I still have no idea where it is you want the Country information to
disappear or why you think you need to.

OK. Now I see what you're asking. I had to piece your two posts together to
figure out where you needed to omit the Country field.
To learn about ways to control how an Address is inserted into Word from
Outlook, take a look here:
http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/insword.htm
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q134901

More recent versions of Office (XP and 2003) are less predictable when it
comes to inserting addresses. Modifying AddressLayout in Word 2002 will
apply only to addresses inserted into a document, but not to Envelopes or
Labels. The KB offers the following kludgy workaround:

How can I turn off or omit the words "United States of America" which is
added as the last line by the Contacts app when I use an address from the
Outlook
Contacts list to address an envelope in Word? This is a waste of ink.
Outlook 2002 SP2
A typical address would look like this when clicked from the Outlook
Contacts book to the envelope app in Word.
Want to know how to turn off the last line (don't want it included in the
address) which is added by Outlook as a default line.
