In Outlook 98 you can have Outlook automatically add
emaill address to your address book when you reply to
emails. Below I have shown how to do it in 98. How do
you do it in 2002?

Thanks for the help.

SUMMARY
Microsoft Outlook 98 can automatically add the e-mail
address of each person you reply to as a contact in your
Contacts folder.

NOTE: This feature is not available when using the
Corporate or Workgroup installation of Outlook.
MORE INFORMATION
To enable this feature, follow these steps:
On the Tools menu, click Options.
On the Preferences tab, click E-mail Options.
Click to select "Automatically put people I reply to in."
If you have more than one Contacts folder available,
click Folder, and then select the desired Contacts
folder.
Click OK to close all dialog boxes.
 
That feature only existed in IMO mode, which is now abandoned.
No such feature in Outlook 2002 and higher, but you can write code to do it
if you want.
 
Can this be done with a rule or some sort of macro? I
dont know how to writs code.

Thnaks for the quick response.

MVP - This topic is the same question I had when I came
here today. I REALLY need this feature. Could you
please send me the instructions or point me in the right
direction for them --

Please keep in mind that I will need detailed
instructions.. I don't know the first thing about
writing code.

Thank you,
nan

It's worked for everyone else I know that's used it.
