When I click the "Insert address" button, it opens the screen that says "Show
names from the: Outlook Address book
Is there a way to change it so it goes to "contacts" instead of "Outlook
Address book
I was able to do it in Outlook but can't seem to do it when in Word

You would be better asking this question in an Outlook group as the way
address books are displayed is an Outlook function - do you have the
contacts list flagged as an Outlook address book in its properties. The
address books sometimes go awry following an upgrade of Outlook - in those
circumstances I find that it is best to delete all the Outlook address books
(not the contacts list) then add the Outlook address book again so it points
to the right place.

I have "contacts" set as the default in Outlook but it doesn't select it in
MSWord. I tried deleting all and re-adding - still doesnl't work. I will
try posting to the Outlook folder and see if I can get some help there.
Thank you.
