How can I "find a contact" (i.e. restaurant) when no person id'd

[susannebg]

I have contacts that are non-person specific... for instance, a specific
restaurant. I enter the restaurant name in Outlook without an associated
person name. When I use the "Type a contact to find" feature, and search for
the restaurant contact, it does not see the restaurant name because they are
in the Company field. Is there a way to have the "Type a contact to find"
feature search company names as well? I was able to do this in Outlook 2000
just fine. thanks

Might want to start off by telling us exactly how you create these Contacts.
If you have left all name fields and electronic address fields blank, I
would not expect "Type a Contact" to find them. I would use Advanced Find
instead.
