Default contact won't resolve?

Dmitry

Question #1 answer. I guess so, if I go to the contacts folder and right
click on it, then select properties, under the Outlook Address Book tab, the
name of the address book is "Contacts". Hope that answers your question.

Question #2

I think the control K action may indicate something. I get 2 entries. The
email address and also the Business fax such as this:

Name Email Type
Dale Jones SMTP
Dale Jones (Business Fax) FAX

What I can't figure out is there is only one contact in the address book. I
do have a Fax phone number typed in for that person however.

What's going on?

Regards
Dale

Does the contact in question reside in a contacts folder visible in the
Outlook Address Book?
Is there a chance that you have duplicate/ambiguous contacts? What happens
when you hit Ctrl+K after you type the name of the contact in question in
the To edit box in Outlook?

I have a VBA module I copied from the internet and modified it to do what
I needed. Sorry, I don't remember who provided it (but thanks whoever
you were).

Anyway, here is the bit that seems to be causing some trouble.

For Each objOutlookRecip In .Recipients
objOutlookRecip.Resolve
Next


This code seems to be kind of hit and miss. When it works - it works
well.

But, certain contacts, which I know I have in my address book, will not
resolve. In the "To" field of the email, I get a red underline. In my
reading, I believe that meant the name was not in the address book. I've
double and triple checked spelling but I can't seem to make it work.

Does anyone have a clue what might be causing this situation?

Thanx in advance
Dale
