I inserted the address book icon on my toolbar so I can
easily access my addresses and insert them in letters.
My problem is that the address book automatically
defaults to the Outlook Address Book instead of the
Contact List. I only use the Contact List. How do I get
it to default to the Contact List instead of the Outlook
Address Book? Thanks, Linda

Linda,

Try changing the startup folder for Outlook. On Outlook
2003, you can do this under Tools > Options: Choose the
Other tab and click Advanced Options under General and
Browse for your Contact List.

That will only change the way Outlook starts up. A better plan might be to
look in Outlook > tools > e-mail accounts and ensure there is only one
e-mail address book listed. If more, delete them all then re-add Outlook
address book.

From the address book itself you can choose tools > options and set which
contact list is displayed first.

If that doesn't fix it, ask the experts in the Outlook groups.
