Address layout

[Ian Wolfe]

I've just started with Win 2003 and tried to alter the Address Layout
as in Win 2000. Of course it doesn't work. Specifically I want to put
the Zip Code on to a separate line. How do I do this please? TIA.

AddressLayout works the same way in all versions of Word.

Hi,

Import of Address Data to Word 2003

I have been attempting to customise the Address Layout in Word for
few days now but with little success. I have read a lot of sites bu
none seem to answer this, I want the to have under the persons nam
their Job Title & Company if it exsits - easy - but what i really wan
to happen is that if the Job Title and Company are not in outlook tha
the lines are supressed. Instead I find i get 2 blank lines betwee
the name and the address.

I have followed the KB @ http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=212345, i
suggest that the {} will suppress any blank information but in 200
this doesn't seem to be the case - any throughts on what I am missing.


Below is the text enter into autotext.

{{<PR_DISPLAY_NAME_PREFIX> <PR_GIVEN_NAME> <PR_SURNAME>
<PR_DISPLAY_NAME>}
{<PR_TITLE>}
{<PR_COMPANY_NAME>}
{<PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS>}}


Thank you for any help you maybe able give.

I am not sure if an If...then...Else field can be used in these
circumstances, but try:

{{<PR_DISPLAY_NAME_PREFIX> <PR_GIVEN_NAME> <PR_SURNAME> |
<PR_DISPLAY_NAME>}
{ IF {<PR_TITLE>}<> "" {PR_TITLE>}
{ IF {<PR_COMPANY_NAME>}<> "" {<PR_COMPANY_NAME>}
{<PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS>} { IF {<PR_COMPANY_NAME>}<> "" {<PR_COMPANY_NAME>}
{<PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS>} {<PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS>} } } }

The curly brackets define the field area so they need to be moved or
removed - Instead of

{{<PR_DISPLAY_NAME_PREFIX> <PR_GIVEN_NAME> <PR_SURNAME> |
<PR_DISPLAY_NAME>}
{<PR_TITLE>}
{<PR_COMPANY_NAME>}
{<PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS>}}

you need

{<PR_DISPLAY_NAME_PREFIX> }<PR_GIVEN_NAME> <PR_SURNAME>
{<PR_TITLE>
}{<PR_COMPANY_NAME>
}<PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS>

the DisplayName field would duplicate one of the other fields so is not
required.

See also http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm, which documents this and an
alternative method inserting Outlook data which you may find more flexible
and thus more useful. There are also sample envelope templates to download
which use this technique.
