Recently installed IPaq and outlook 2002 , now when
looking at contacts in the address book ,it shows two
enteries for a contact with "e-mail" and "Business fax",
is there any way of removing the contact shown which
relates to the business fax , so that a contact appears
with an "e-mail address" , many thanks !
 
This is happening to me with an OL2003 install. I've been
deleting the listing that displays the fax entry. The e-mail entry
remains untouched.

The standard behavior for the Outlook Address book is to display all
electronic addresses (both fax and e-mail). That behavior cannot be changed.
The only way to prevent the display of fax numbers is to store them in a
different field or to disguise them (e.g., precede them with an alpha
character) so that Outlook won't recognize them as phone numbers.
There are also a number of utilities available that can do this for you
automatically. Some are listed here:
