Since you haven't included the original conversation in your latest reply, I
have no idea. The newsgroup interface you are using apparently does not quote earlier messages in the thread. Please take the time to quote the original message. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Dexter" wrote in message ...

If you want a second mobile number, either use one of the existing fields or use a custom form to add a new field and matching control. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Marshall" wrote in message ... I'm trying to put information about a contact into the different fields. One of the fields I want to put in is a secondary mobile phone number. However, the drop down list does not give that as a choice. It has plenty of other phone choices but not the one I need. How can I add that as a choice for the drop down list without having to design a new form and add a whole new field? Using Outlook 2002 Thanks for any help! |

Outlook supports custom forms with additional fields and your own layout for
displaying those fields. So, while you can't modify the existing phone number list, you could add another text field and a control where the user can enter and read the data in that field. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/forms.htm for basics on custom forms. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Dexter" wrote in message ...
