I have no idea what you mean by "when I double-click a name in the list of
clients in my central view."

This is not complicated. Contact data is entered in the Contacts Folder.
Don't try to enter it anywhere else. You appear to be, although it's tough
to guess what you are doing.

Before sending this I looked again in the Help files (local and on-line)
and
there was nothing I could find with several search strings. Then I just
drilled through the instructions for adding data in the contact form and
through the capture of data during message handling. Nothing there.

I bet this hasn't changed throughout several Outlook versions... but I am
new to outlook in the 2007 iteration, and the MS folks may be assuming
some
knowledge of the program's UI -- or forgetting some of the UI elements we
need to be told. I need to leave feedback on the form for the Help file
builders. Anyway, I hope you guys can clear this up in the meantime:

I view client contact data in the window produced when I double-click a
name in the list of clients in my central view. (I don't remember the
official terms for these panes.) In that client data form, an e-mail
address
that has been already entered cannot be changed by clicking or
double-clicking in the text in the field. There must be a trick I have to
learn: another key pressed before the click to tell Outlook that I want to
edit this string rather than invoke an e-mail, or some other action.
That's
my guess...

So, how do I edit e-mail addresses already entered in e-mail data fields
in
the contact form?

I hope this is clearer.

Clarify what you mean. You enter email addresses in Outlook 2007 the same

every other version.

All,
How do I edit an e-mail address in a field? This is Outlook2007. When I
click it starts the e-mail composition module.
