Cant change line spacing!
From a contact in outlook, I choose Actions, letter I choose actions, New
letter to contact, then word pops up and I click finish because I only need the address of the contact in a word doc. BUT, the line spacing says "single spacing" but it's close to 2 inches and the address takes up the whole page! HELP? I was fiddling with formats and tools and all kinds of crap and think I've only made things worse trying to "fix" the problem. |

Check your page setup. File | Page Setup | Layout and make sure that it says
top. In the future, perhaps you should just put the Outlook address book on your toolbar in Word and select your contact that way. I hope this has been helpful to you.

Hi Dad:
Glad that solution worked for you! To put the Outlook address book on your toolbar, do this: Tools | Customize | on the right-hand side highlight Insert and on the left-hand side scroll down until you see the address book, then drag it up to your toolbar. It's as simple as that! Glad I could help you out. "Dadrocks" wrote: Ok. THANKS! Now, about that "Outlook address bar", how do I add this to the word toolbar?

Ugh. I can't get this. I went to "Tools", Customize on WORD I opened word
and I get the following: a "Toolbars" tab, a Command tab and an "options" tab. I don't see anything the So, I open Outlook and Tools and customize and i get the same tabs and all that is to the right of each (in both) are "new" and "reset" . I don't see 'insert" anywhere. and thus... I'm s h t u c k. :-) Thanks for tryin...I'm quite the novice here... "Carol" wrote: Hi Dad: Glad that solution worked for you!

Thanks Susan,
I am a little confused regarding the instructions here because after I typed in a new word doc the autotext info as shown, I clicked on insert, autotext, BUT...the "new" was unable to be clicked on...it was there, but it was shaded so that I could not use it.. Any further suggestions? I also hit "enter" on my keyboard as it seemed to instruct. Thanks. "Suzanne S.

Did you have the AutoText entry selected when you went to Insert | AutoText
| AutoText? Note, too, that if you want to save the entry in Normal.dot, you don't have to use this route; you can just press Alt+F3 and type the entry name. -- Suzanne S.
