This is actually not true in Word. In Word it can be used to provide
physical addresses for envelopes and labels.

Given that this is a compatibility issue relating to Outlook's address
book, you may have better luck posting to an Outlook forum and to that
end I have cross posted this reply, with your original message, there.
While Word 2003 works with Outlook 2007 in this respect, I do not know to
what extent Word 2000 is compatible with Outlook 2002.

How can I get the Word address book feature to look at the Outlook
Contact name (instead of the email address) and allow me to see in
the Select Name dialog the Contacts that do not have an email address
defined?

The address book function's sole purpose is to translate names to
electronic addresses via resolution with contact folder entries. It has
no facility to work with contacts that have no e-mail or fax addresses.
