[gui-talk] A Little Help with Outlook?

[Mike Freeman]

Hello.

If you wish to add addresses manually, the same keystrokes work: 
Control+Shift+B gets you into the addressbook and Control+N brings up 
the "new address" dialogue. I believe that if you reply to a message, 
the address is automatically placed in the addressbook unless you 
disable this feature.

At least on my machine at work, the automatic address insertion feature 
works slightly differently than that which you indicate you expect and 
what happens in Outlook Express or Eudora: rather than filling in the 
address field completely,, you'll hear the program voice the addresses 
that match as you add letters. However, in order to get the address 
actually entered, you'll have to hit the Tab Key once. Subsequent 
pressses of the Tab Key move you through the fields of the message as 
you would expect.

Mike

  I recently got a new computer.  Decided to stay with XP Professional. 
I am
  using JFW 8.  On my old computer, I regularly used Eudora and, this 
time,
  just went ahead and set up Outlook--not Outlook Express.  However, I 
don't
  know how to add to the address book and don't know how to get names in 
there
  so that when I start to write an email and hit the first letter or so 
of the
  person's name the email address pops up.  How do I put names in the 
address
  book and how do I get that feature to work so that the names pop up 
when I
  start to write the name in a new message?  I know this is stuff I 
should
  know but, at work, all of that happenes automatically on the network.
  Thanks.
