Can you use Streets & Trips instead of Live Search when having the "Display
Address Button" find an address for a particular contact?

Maybe - but since you did not post your version of Outlook, no one really knows.

No, you need mappoint installed to use the local map files.

The "display map of address" button takes me to an opening "live search" page
without putting in the particulars relating to the "contact" in question. Is
there a way to have this button point to MS Streets & Tips and to open with
the contacts specific address? It mays to have soome method available to
allow things to flow.

The button should map to the address in the contact even when it uses the
live map page - but will not if it can't find the address in the db - this
is fairly common with new developments but can also happen if the street
name or spelling is not exactly the same as in the db. also - make sure you
have the latest outlook patches installed.

This is the page that is created from a business in my contacts - just by
clicking the map button. As you can see from reading the url, it pushed the
address up.
http://local.live.com/default.aspx?w...nculture=en-US

again, no, you can't use S&T - if you have mappoint, it will use mappoint
on the local computer rather than live maps.
