When you use your Outlook 2002 Contacts folder to insert
a single address into a Word document, the only way a
Contact shows up in the Contact list is if you have made
an entry in either the Contact forms Fax or E-mail
fields. Why?

The problem is that if you only have a Fax number and no
e-mail listed for the Contact, the Contact's name is
inserted into the Word document with the words "(Business
Fax)" or "(Home Fax)" attached to the Full Name. How can
you eliminate the insertion of these words?

What happens if your Contact has neither a Fax number nor
an e-mail address? Can you just not access that Contact
entry from Word?

Outlook really should have a way of printing single
envelopes without using Word. The above is very time
consuming and far from trouble free.
 
Not so.
You have corrupted your Address Book in Word somehow. When the Word Address
Book shows only Contacts with e-mail addresses, that usually means you did
an inplace upgrade from IMO support mode of Outlook and Word's Address book
remains linked to your old Outlook profile. This MS KB article may help:
