MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / November 2003address book showing contacts with "E-mail" and "bus fax"
Recently installed IPaq and outlook 2002 , now when looking at contacts in the address book ,it shows two enteries for a contact with "e-mail" and "Business fax", is there any way of removing the contact shown which relates to the business fax , so that a contact appears with an "e-mail address" , many thanks ! This is happening to me with an OL2003 install. I've been deleting the listing that displays the fax entry. The e-mail entry remains untouched.

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: http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/nofax.htm SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Recently installed IPaq and outlook 2002 , now when > looking at contacts in the address book ,it shows two > enteries for a contact with "e-mail" and "Business fax", > is there any way of removing the contact shown which > relates to the business fax , so that a contact appears > with an "e-mail address" , many thanks ! |
