I've just installed Office Pro 2003, upgrading from Office 2000, OS is XP
Pro. In 2000 I could access my contact addresses from the envelope printing
window in Word. I am now unable to do this unless I make Outlook my default
mail program. I did not have to use outlook as my default in Office 2000 to
access my data from word, and do not wish to have outlook control my mail. I
will add that when being installed office went and changed my mail default on
it's own without even asking if I wanted it to! Anyway...
How can I acess the address information in my contacts from word without
letting MS control my mail functions?
It would seem that MS learned nothing at all from the last anti-trust suit.
 
It has never been possible to use Word's Address Book unless Outlook is the
default mail client. The Address Book Services use Outlook's mail
transports.
