In Outlook contacts there are buttons or combo boxes that allow for more than one category of specific fields. For example, if you click on the mail field next to the email field, you can select different categories of email addresses. Therefore, it is possible to have more than one email address for each entry. This is also the case for mailing address, phone number etc. The Outlook client interface just looks like there are less, because they don't display them all when you just tab through them without expanding some of the fields.

I'm referring to the number of fields that each client supports and saying that the desktop supports fewer of them for some reason.

This makes for a clenaer interface. ________________________________ From: Katherine Moss [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 01, 2011 3:29 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: e mail I'd be nowhere without Outlook 2010! And yes, it can be purchased without the other office applications, but I am lucky considering my college gives me the Professional+ version of Office. I'm not saying you need that though. There is one caveat with the desktop Outlook 2010 client though. When using OWA (Outlook Web Access), a service supported by Exchange Server 2010, you get a heck of a lot more fields that you can fill out on contacts when entering them than you get with the desktop client. However, most of the fields offered by OWA are more for business related info rather than personal info though, so you shouldn't be too worried about them.

Sorry that I don't know it's price, or even if it can be purchased separately from some MS Office bundle. I think all the extras it can do (calendaring, tasks, journals, contacts, and an object model so that it can be programmed and easily interface with WE scripting all make it worth spending some money). You can also buy a very thorough book from access technology institute on use of outlook with window-eyes. hth, Chip ________________________________ From: n3hbt [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2011 9:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: e mail Hello list members, I am getting a new computer today which will have Windows 7 professional.
