Not similar at all. State your Outlook version and what you see instead.
Every properly configured installation of Outlook will have the option to
"Add to Outlook Contacts" in the context menu.

Not sure if this solved the problem for Chris, but I have a similar
problem.
All instructions say that you can add a name/address to Outlook Contacts
or
Address book from an open message by right clicking on sender and then on
'add sender to address list' in the short cut menu. Problem is that add
sender etc does not appear in short cut menu list. Any clues?

I just installed Office 2007 and I want to add new contacts in
outlook.
However, although I know how to do this, the buttons I need to press
to do
so
are not activated and I cannot add new entrieseither this way or by
hot
keys.
Any advice?
