Some contacts not showing in address book

[Guest]

This is a weird one.

If a contact contains the name and address only (i.e., no phone number or
email address), it does not show up in the Outlook Address Book. If I add a
phone number to the contact, it shows up.

Is there a setting that I'm unaware of? Any suggestions?

Thanks.

If a contact contains the name and address only (i.e., no phone
number or email address), it does not show up in the Outlook Address
Book. If I add a phone number to the contact, it shows up.

It's not wierd at all. The sole purpose of the address book it to resolve
electronic addresses. If your contact has no electronlic address (i.e.,
email or fax), then it won'r be shown, since you can't send him an
electronic message without an electronic address.
