I need to add a address field such as Bldg XXX and Unit
XXX as a seperate address Field to show up on the Default
Screenwhen you bring up the Contact Information.

The Only place I have seen to allow this is in the User
Defined Fields and then they show up in the Address.

The problem is, the user defined fields apparently do not
move during a export to file, resulting in that
information being lost.

As there some way of setting up a field which will show on
the contact screen in addition to the ones already there.
Is that "default" screen flexible in any way??

Thank You

You're halfway there. The next step is to design a custom contact form that
shows your custom fields and then make it the default. These pages should
help:
