It's a bug in the importing process. Imported addresses are never resolved
until you open and save the record. Why was it necessary to import these
addresses?

I'm not really sure what you mean, but I have been trying to figure it
out.
When I go into one of the records that XP Fax doesn't see, I modify it and
then re-save it. Now XP Fax sees it. I have over 5,000 records so this
would be very time consuming. Do you think I imported incorrectly or is
this
just a bug in the software?
Thanks

Answer my other question, please.
If you create a new Contact from scratch, will it appear in in the
Outlook
Address Book. I still suspect you have unresolved addresses.

Okay, I didn't realize it changed names. I am using Windows XP Fax as
my
OS
is XP Home.
My default Contact manager is Microsoft Office Outlook.
All of the imported contacts have the valid fax number showing in their
records.
Now what?
Thanks

You are not using Microsoft Fax. It has not been in use since Windows
95.
Existing fax programs include Windows 2000 Personal Fax, Windows XP
Fax,
and
Vista Fax and Scan.
To examine your default Contact manager look at Control Panel
Internet
Options Programs... (depending on your operating system, which you
have
not mentioned).
When you create a new Contact with a valid fax address, will it appear
in
your address book? If so, then you have found your problem.

Thanks for responding.
I state in the title that I am using MS or Microsoft Fax.
Not sure what you mean by "State what program you have set as your
default
program for managing Contacts for your operating system". I use
Outlook
2003.
I tried opening up a record and resaving it, but that did not
resolve
my
issue.

A couple of things you need to check. First, clarify which fax
program
you
are using. State what program you have set as your default program
for
managing Contacts for your operating system. Finally, importing
Contacts
often fails to resolve the electronic addresses. If your fax
numbers
are
not
resolved, they will not appear in the address book until you
resolve
them
(usually requires opening and Saving each Contact Record).

I imported all of my contacts directly from Access 2003. I see
them
fine
when using Outlook. However when using MS Fax I click on the
Address
Book
link and it doesn't see any of my imported contacts. It does see
all
of
my
contacts that were inputted manually.
I can't figure out why or if I did something wrong.
Any help would be appreciated.
I am using Windows XP Home
