Hi Nick,

That may be, but wishing it worked another way doesn't change the fact
that the best way to use the software /as it is today/ is as I
described. One has to work within the constraints of the system to get
the best from it until the wished for enhancements are made.

Indeed. OTOH, I won't actually use the AB in that way - I'll stay with
the way it is now for a simple reason: I don't want to be interrupted
by an extra dialog when trying to write to my colleague at home
instead of his usual work address. I would consider that a penalty and
an overhead. I would much rather pick his home address from a separate
AB entry.
Of course, it ultimately depends on what mechanism is be introduced to
handle multiple addresses in a single record.
