Default Coping contact address to appointment location in Outlook 2007

When I copy a contact address and try to paste it to the appointment location
field in the calendar, only the first line of the address is pasted. The
second line: city, state and zip code are not. Also, I cannot drag to the
location field. Please tell me how to paste the entire contact address to
appointment location. Thank you. (other than that I love Outlook 2007).

You'd have to edit the address before pasting so that it contains only one line.

Thanks Sue. I have been doing that. It is odd however that the subject line
of the appointment copies both lines. I guess the issue is unique to the use
of the location information. It would be nice if there was a fix to make this
easier. I really appreciate your fast response.

Default Coping contact address to appointment location in Outlook 2007

Is there any way to attach contact phone numbers and addresses so you can
dial the contact or map the address (from a mobile device)?

Copy and paste manually or write your own VBA code to perform that operation.

Seems lame that outlook can't do it. What's a VBA code and how do you write
one?

VBA = Visual Basic for Applications, the language used to write macros in Word, Excel, Outlook and other Office applications. Start at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/vbabasics.htm . The sample at http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=566 is probably close to what you want to do.
