Hi. I am using Windows XP Professional and Outlook 2003. When I try to
address an email by clicking on "To" and then choosing a contact, it always
defaults to Accounts.

When the Select Names dialogue box opens, Accounts is the default setting
under Show Names from the: drop down box. I always have to click on the down
arrow and select "contacts" from the Outlook Address Book, Accounts,
Business Contacts and Contacts. Is there any way to make it open with
"Contacts" as the default?

Thanks in advance.

Russ,

Wow, that was too easy. And, for years I have been manually selecting
contacts each time. I guess that's why you're the MVP, and I'm not : )
