How can I get the Business Fax phone number to appear on the contact card as
a default instead of having to open the card and adding the field every time I create a new contact? |

Since you just posted that you don't want your fax numbers to appear, why do
you want to do this? Your post is unclear. Explain what you think the difference is between an open and a closed "Contact Card." You always open a Contact record to enter data, and the Business Fax number is on the first page of the Contact Record by default. What is it you want to do that you can't? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "LisaB" wrote in message ...

Sorry for the confusion - I should have thought this out a little more.
When you create a new contact, there are fields for the phone numbers, one of which is business fax. However, to have the business fax number appear on the card when you view it, while you are in the create card mode you have to double click on the picture of the card to open another window that allows you to pick and choose what you want to see on that individual card. I'm just wondering if there is a way to change the default to display the fax number without having to open the contact. Thank you for your other response to my question about not having the fax number appear when creating a new email (which creates a second entry). I will now add an "F" before entering the fax number. Hope this makes a little more sense. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Since you just posted that you don't want your fax numbers to appear, why do you want to do this? Your post is unclear.

"create card mode" makes no sense. Please state the view to which you are
referring using Outlook's terminology. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "LisaB" wrote in message ... Sorry for the confusion - I should have thought this out a little more.

that is on the business card picture. to change that, you need to open a new
form and set it up as you want then publish it and make it default. http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/businesscard.asp -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.
