When adding a new contact I am unable to enter information in the Home
Address or the Business Address field on the "All Fields" screen. Those two
field will not accept data. All other fields are ok. How can I enter data
in those fields?

These fields are not writable as they are a composite of the fields
underneath there. All composite fields are read only.

Thanks for the response. However, what line do I put the street address on?
That line is read only as well.

Not all of the fields are editable in that display. city, state, zip code,
country, po box (which isn't used in the other views)- but not street. I
have no idea why they did it - for a logical reason or because they goofed -
but it's not something you can change. (I'm guessing they goofed.)
