Link to contacts

[Guest]

In my word doc, i created a hyperlink to my contacts folder. But now I have
to copy and paste the info. Is there a way to have it auto insert the contact
info in word? Can I do this in word or do I need to write a database in
access or would excel be the way to go?

You can get the WOPR utility. It extracts Outlook contact information using
drop-down menus. It comes with the book Using Office 2003 (or whatever your
version is), Special Edition, by Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard. (Chapter 19 of
SE Using Office 2003) You should be able to get this through your public
library or at Amazon.com

Otherwise, see

Hope this helps,
