Contacts files in Word 2003
What "bug?" You have reported no bug here.
-- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Roy Lehmann" wrote in message ... First, let me start by stating that unless the contact records contain some resolved (i.e., underlined) electronic address, like an e-mail address or a fax number, it will not appear in the Address Book interface. Duh! This is a valid feature in Outlook. You can not send an email unless you have an email address. But I got off on a tangent when I was sen here from the Word community. This same feature is a bug in Word, because it won't let me use Tools - Letters and Mailings - and either Envelopes and Labels or Letter Wizard. Mail Merge works fine.

That just means you have misconfigured Outlook. The program works just fine
when configured correctly. There is no such bug. This is often seen when you've upgraded from an earlier version. Just create a new profile and make sure that Outlook is set as both your default mail program and default Contacts manager.

This is the answer I have been looking for since I first started this thread

I wish I knew. I have been using Office 2003 for about 3 years now, but it
is only lately that I have been using Outlook extensively. Since Word mail merge works fine I did not observe the problem. It was only when I started using Outlook Contacts as an address book rather than a database that the problem was observed. There is going to be an opportunity in the near future to replace this slow desktop. At that time I will copy only the data between machines. The software will be preinstalled OEM.
