I would like to group or filter contacts in a way that I can see which
contact has set business, house or other address as the mailing address.
For a start, I set a table view with the MailingAddressIndicator, the
SelectedMailingAddress, the Adress Selector, and the SelectedAdress but it
didn't help much.
-Address selector is a dropdown combobox that display its content only when
selected.
-MailingAddressIndicator is a checkbox that appears only a flick of a
second when selected
-SelectedMailingAddress contents vary too much to be useful as it only
mirrors another address.
-SelectedAddress shows empty and is not editable
I then tried to create a filter based on the Address Selector, thinking
that the Address Indicator combobox index might be a criterion. The rule
was created but the view showed empty. I tried similar technic with the
SelectedAddress, thinking its non-editable content might be something like
0,1, and 2 (index?) or "Home", "Business", and "Other", but it didn't work
either.
I then tought to create a somekind of a rule that would display only
contacts with SelectedMailingAdress = HomeAddress or such thing, but I
don't know how to do that. SQL syntax maybe ?
I dunno
I running out of creative idea.
Anyone can help ?
Thanks.

This question has been asked a number of times (check Google) but nobody
ever gave an answer.
Therefore I understand that the basic thing you want to performe is
impossible. If it is, it would be a pretty much stupid limitation of
Outlook.
