All,

When making a contact with a E-Mail address and a fax numer I see 2 contacts
in the Addresslist (one for the mail and one for the fax). We have WIN2000
Installed and a modem on board, fax is installed as a service...Is that the
reason?

How can we show only E-mail contacts since we don't use the modem for Fax...

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:
