WOW! That is too easy!
Thank you, GR "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... In this case, you actually don't. This AutoText entry, by some behind-the-scenes magic, just governs what fields are imported from the Outlook Address Book when you use Insert | Address. -- Suzanne S.

"GR" wrote in message ... Graham, Thank you! But, how do I use AutoText when addressing an envelope? (Please excuse my ignorance about Word. I switched to Word just a few weeks ago after using WordPerfect for close to 20 years.) GR "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ... There are some sample envelope templates for download on my web site, which link to Outlook, that you may find useful. However the address in the envelope/label wizard is re-arranged using an autotext entry. Copy and save the following as an Autotext entry called AddressLayout : {PR_GIVEN_NAME PR_SURNAME }{PR_COMPANY_NAME }{PR_POSTAL_ADDRESS} Note that the curly brackets are not fields but simply typed from the keyboard. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org GR wrote: I address envelopes using Word (XP) and contact lists in Outlook (XP). When addressing single envelopes, I often find the addressee's name has come into the Word address box with the "last name first" although it is entered correctly in the contact list. I would appreciate advice on how to set up Word (or Outlook contacts) so I routinely get the "first name first" and "last name last" in the Word address box. GR |
