I have the following AddressLayout field to help the
insertion of Outlook Addresses into Word and I can't seem
to figure out how to get the Attention Line and title to
line up with a tab and to bold.

{<PR_COMPANY_NAME>
}{<PR_STREET_ADDRESS>
}{<PR_LOCALITY>}, {<PR_STATE_OR_PROVINCE>
}{<PR_COUNTRY>} {<PR_POSTAL_CODE>}

Attention: {<PR_DISPLAY_NAME>}
{<PR_TITLE>}

Tried switches I could find but it did not seem to work.
Using Word XP.

Thanks so much!

Shauna

I don't think there's any way you can control this in the
AutoText. Word seems to store and insert this as "plain
text".

I've found if I create a paragraph style with the tab stops
for the alignment, and apply that to the paragraph where I'm
going to insert the address, that it does adapt the style
formatting. These seems like a logical behavior, as one
might want to insert an address just about anywhere, and
have it adapt to the formatting where it's being inserted.
