I have a computer set up as a fax server, to be used for faxing only.

I have the Windows Address Book set up. When I choose Address Book, under
start menu, all 100 names show up. On the left side, main identity contacts
folder, is selected.

I want to send a fax. I go to Word, write the letter, choose Print, change
it to FAX, click OK. Send fax wizard comes up. I'm not doing a mailmerge.

When I click on Address Book, it comes up, but the existing names/numbers do
not show up. Under €œShow names from€� it has Personal Address Book and
Contacts, but both show no names.

I would like my existing list to show up. How do I get these already entered
names and fax numbers to appear in the Address Book, to fax from?

I'm using Windows XP Fax and Windows Address Book, Windows XP

Thank you,
Bill

Word requires Outlook contacts as the address book source, not Windows
Address Book.

But Word is not in play here once user prints to the Fax Printer. User
simply needs to set the default addressing service for the OS to the WAB.
Answered in another post. Question was multiposted.
(Perhaps Microsoft's servers will manage to get this posted on the third
try).
