Please explain more clearly what you need to do and why.
I cannot imagine any scenario in which a user would need to create a Contact Record that refers to more than one Contact. Why must you? How would you expect a mail merge to work in that scenario? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Cathleen M. Smith" Cathleen M. wrote in message ...

setup of contacts
Thank you for your time. We are a refrigerant recycler and we also do
recovery work in several chemical plants here in South Texas. We are building a database with all of the plants information. We would like to send information to several people in one plant. (Warehouse Mgr., Purchasing Agent, Mainten. Supr.). We would like to be able to include all of these people in a mailing without having to enter the plant's information over and over (addresses, phones, etc) "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Please explain more clearly what you need to do and why.

I still see no reason to try to create a Contact Record that includes more
than one person. I know of no PIM program that would use such a scenario. Why wouldn't you use Outlook's "New Contact From Same Company" option to do what you want? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Cathleen M. Smith" wrote in message ... Thank you for your time.

setup of contacts
Thanks for your help. This is the first time we have undertaken a project of
this size and I was hoping for a method that would keep us from data entry burnout. We have one last question, when we use the "New Contact From Same Company" option and there is a physical address and a mailing address the new contact does not bring over the second address. Is there a way to resolve this? Cathleen "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: I still see no reason to try to create a Contact Record that includes more than one person.

Not that I've seen. Only the mailing address is carried over.
