How do I display all entered phone numbers in Outlook?

I have recently begun using Outlook. I've entered contact information from
the program I used previously. It appears Outlook is behaving inconsistently.
For some contacts in the Contacts | Address Cards view, it displays every
phone number I've entered. However, for other contacts, it only displays one
or a few of the phone numbers or other data entered.

I am only interested in the phone numbers and the address, not the free form
text box.

Have searched the Help facility and this forum without success. Suggestions
or URLs with more extensive detail about Outlook would be appreciated.
 
Could you at least mention how you entered these phone numbers and which
ones are missing? You gave us nothing to go on.
Did you look at how your Address Card view is configured or customized?
 
I solved the problem by locating the means to customize the view. I added and
removed fields to be displayed in the view I'm using. I did not find such a
suggestion in the results of my search. I had also scanned the general topics
in Help and did not see a reference to configuring or customizing views.
Thank you very much.

I am trying to display custom fields in my contacts>Detailed Address Cards
View. I went into All Fields and added the custom heading for each contact
that I needed to have something different. If I go into Contact>Detailed
Address Cards>View>Arrange by>Current View>Customize and add the custom
heading created in the All Fields it will display for some. At some point
the program will stop allowing custom fields to be added to the detailed
address cards and all previous fields added disappear from the Detailed
Address Cards View. Do you have any ideas about this problem? Is there a
limit to the number of custom fields that can be added to the contacts?
