Brian,

I'm not sure which "address book" your responding about. As I understand
it, the address book toolbar icon in Word is used to provide a way to link
to
the Microsoft Outlook profile and gain access to the Outlook Contacts
folder
for the purpose of loading physical addresses into letters and/or
envelopes
created in Word. My problem, as outlined in my original post, is that
instead of listing all the names in my Outlook Contacts folder when I
click
on the Word Address Book icon, I get only a list of the email addresses
for
contacts that have email addresses defined.

It seems like there ought to be a way to get Word to look at and list the
Names in the Contacts folder. That is the way this function worked when I
was using Outlook 2000 SP3. The problem only occurred when I was forced
to
upgrade to Outlook 2002 to be able to sync my cell phone.

The address book function's sole purpose is to translate names to
electronic
addresses via resolution with contact folder entries. It has no facility
to
work with contacts that have no e-mail or fax addresses.
