Fax Numbers When Sending E-Mail

[Tim]

In Outlook, when I send an e-mail and click on the "To"
button, an e-mail list from my Contacts pops up.
Unfortunately, the fax numbers from my contacts are
included in the list. What can I do so that only the e-
mail addresses are on the list (who needs the fax numbers
wjen you are sending an e-mail???).

Help!!!

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:
