email address lookup

[Michael J. Servidio]

When writing an email and picking the TO: buton I would
like to only view contacts with email addresses and not
ones with FAX also. What do I need to change in Outlook
2002 to make this work?

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.
There are also a number of utilities available that can do this for you
automatically. Some are listed here:

There's nothing in Outlook you can change to "fix" this, since it's the way
Outlook is designed to work. However, Sperry Software makes an add-in you
can buy. http://www.sperrysoftware.com/Outlook/Hide-Fax-Numbers.asp
