Addressing envelopes
I'm completely bewildered. Using Word 2003 I get the addresses for
envelopes from Outlook Contacts. There I type the names in identical fashion, ie Mr John Smith. But when I get the addresses in Word, some keep the Mr and others omit it. In "File as" in Contacts, some offer the Mr and some do not. Even if I type in the missing Mr it doesn't necessarily appear in Word. What on earth is going on and please how can I rectify matters? Secondly I get Contacts List in Word to display in alphabetical order of Surname. I cannot remember how I did that and I have been quite unable to do it for a friend with the identical setup to mine. Again any help would be much appreciated. TIA. -- Ian Wolfe. Linlithgow. Birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots. Blessed are the peacemakers. |

Addressing envelopes
This is more an Outlook issue than a Word issue, however. The insert address
function (by default) does not include the personal title, so if yours is doing so, the title is in the name field of the contact and not in the title field. You can, with provisos, change the layout of what the insert address tool inserts - see http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm I don't have Outlook 2003 to hand to confirm how to change the display sort order of the address book. Ask in an Outlook forum. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Ian Wolfe wrote: I'm completely bewildered.

Thanks for that, Graham.
