How do I change Outlook XP's default address listing from Business back to
Home in my Contacts? The Address field used to show Home but has now been
replaced by Business.
Thank you!!!

Russ,
Thanks for the quick reply. I clicked the link and followed the
instructions. When I click on an existing contact, Business still shows as
the default. I click the down arrow to select Home, make sure the address is
listed and then save the contact. When I reopen it, the address is blank and
the default still shows Business. Am I missing something?

Probably. What you're missing remains a mystery to us all since we have no
idea what you actually did.

Are you also checking the "this is the mailing address" check box?

Yes. After following the hyperlink's instructions and checking "this is the
mailing address" box, it still defaults to Business instead of Home.

And this is occurring on the same existing contact where you made those changes?
