find by domain name

[Guest]

Perhaps I'm just being lazy here... I'm looking to send an email to a
particular person at a company, but can't remember their name. They are in
my address book so I could go look them up. However, if I use the "select
names" or the advanced find it doesn't bring them up.

In my particular instance I have multiple folks at the 'Northwind' company.
I'm using the 'company name (contact)' display name. I also have 'Northwind
Customer Support'. If I search in "more columns" or via 'advanced find' I
only see the customer support contact.

Sorry about that! Outlook 2007. I opened a new message, click 'to', select
to search more columns, then select the approprite address book (local or
specific public folder) then entered "northwind" or "northwind.com" (if
searching for (e-mail address removed)). Either way I don't get any to show up.

No wonder. The address book view is not intended for conducting searches.
Use either Instant Search or Advanced Find in the relevant Contacts Folder.
