When I start a new mail message I click on the "To" button to display my
contacts to select for the new message. In screen that pops up when I select
the "to" shows email addresses and fax or business numbers. Is there a way
to customize this screen where it will only show my contacts' email addresses
and not show their fax or business numbers?

Any suggestions or help is appreciated.

You cannot customize this screen, but you can excluse the faxes from the
list. To do it, you should add any text before fax number in the properties
of the contact. For example:

FAX: +1 234 5678901

After that Outlook will exclude this number from the list, but this number
will be accessible in the contact's properties.

You can do it manually or automatically by using "Hide Fax Numbers" from
MAPILab Toolbox (http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/toolbox/).
