Using Word 2000 Send To Mail Recipient with Outlook 2000
Please see correspondence below this message.
When I use the subject programs I cannot get to the Address Book in Outlook 2000 which is my default email program. I have over 500 Contacts / Address Book email addresses. I type a document in Word 2000 click on File / Send To/ Mail Recipient and it calls up Outlook 2000 ans when I call up the Address Book does not show any of email addresses. I did finally do the procedure as IanRoy gave me below: Found additional info, if you don't see "Contacts" in the dropdown I mentioned: Open your contacts folder. Then File Folder Properties for "Contacts" Outlook Address Book. Check "Show this folder as an e-mail address book." But when I get to the Show this folder as an email it is already there with a check mark and it is grayed out and you can't change it. There has got to be some simple explanation why we can't get to the Outlook Address Book - PLEASE someone HELP !! Thank you, Paul IanRoy, It was a longer half time show so I went to try what you suggested. I am using Oulook 2000 - I can't find any of the items you are mentioning. I click on File, but I don't see Folder and thenI can't go any further. Are you using Outlook 2003 ? Please let me know.

Have you tried "Show Names from the: Contacts" instead of "Show Names from the: Outlook Address Book" at the upper right of the "Select Names" dialog?

See if this doesn't work for you (assuming you're on an Exchange server):
First, in Outlook, add "Outlook Address Book" as an information service. Here's how: In Outlook, Tools (menu) Services Add Outlook Address Book OK OK. Restart Outlook Then designate your Contacts folder as an Outlook Address Book. So: Open your Contacts folder. File (menu) Folder Properties for "Contacts" Outlook Address Book Check "Show this folder as an e-mail address book" OK. Your Contacts folder should then be available in Word. -- DDM "DDM's Microsoft Office Tips and Tricks" Visit us at www.ddmcomputing.com "carolpm" wrote in message ...
