With Office 2003 I was able to put a small icon at the toolbar which gave me
the option to choose a address from outlook and place it direct into a word
file. Where is this function with office 2007!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
 
Add the command Address Book from Commands Not in the Ribbon to the QAT
(Quick Access Toolbar) or use a macro to insert an address with even more
control of the layout - http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm

This information is very helpful to me too. However, can it be edited to
also include the company name and contact's title information? Thanks for
any help on this.

Sorry about that. I have since read it and have updated the AddressLayout to
include the fields I need. However, as soon as I close out of Word and go
back in, the AddressLayout reverts to the default. I have saved it in
AutoText, and as Normal.dotm. I have even repeated this 3 times now - with
it working once I re-save the AddressLayout. Any ideas why it isn't staying
or becoming my default?

It appears that for some reason normal.dotm is not being saved when you exit
from Word. Set the option in Word Options to prompt to save the normal
template then when you make a change that affects that template it should
prompt you to save it. If it doesn't, something is interfering with that
process. The usual villains are poorly written add-ins. Particularly bad was
the early version of Acrobat 7, but as this is incompatible with Word 2007,
its add-in should not be present? - see

I added the address book to the ribbon and when I click on a name to insert,
Word closes. Any ideas?
