Really? Any random contact highlighted when you click on the contact folder
is the EXACT one you want mapped? Sorry, not at all intutive and highly
unlikely to ever be implemented.

Milly,

when you open the contact folder, and click on a contact... you are viewing
ther info ...but you are not in a separate window, and you want to get a map
of their location... you don't think it's stupid to have to open the contact
and then click on a icon to get a map?

I guess the way Microsoft programs work these days you want a user to click
as many windows and icons as possible... I.E. Office 2007 and Windows Vista...

It's a shame that Microsoft would want MORE clicks to get to a great
feature... AutoDesk is trying to constantly reduce clicks... it makes a
computer user more efficient.

Avi
