Addressing Using Contacts
Hi,
When creating an email from contacts, when clicking "To" to select the names, some names are listed twice because one is for SMTP and the other one is for FAX. Is there a workaround of not displaying the name with the FAX type. Thanks TagaR |

Outlook considers fax numbers to be valid electronic addresses, since there
are many client- and server-based components that can use such addresses. One method to hide fax numbers from the address book is to prefix the fax number with one or more letters (maybe B for business fax, H for home, O for other). If the fax number begins with a letter, Outlook won't show it in the address book. There are a couple of utilities that can help you hide fax numbers from the address book. See http://www.rsoutlook.com/us/rshifa.htm and http://www.sperrysoftware.com/Outlook_Solutions.htm (Hide Fax Numbers). Another way to avoid having fax numbers appear in the address book is simply not to enter data in the fax fields. Put fax numbers in some other (non-phone) fields. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "TagaR" wrote in message ...
