Can I get Outlook 2002 to stop listing "business fax"
contacts in the "select names" diolog box when I'm looking
for names to send an e-mail to?

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.
