Thanks very much for this. I got into the address book, but it looks like I have to put in all the email address one at a time, that sucks. How do you get out of there when you are through? I try to esc, and that didn't work, so I alt f4, but that took me out of everything. Patti Patty: Go into contacts by pressing CTRL three, press alt v, right arrow into the current view submenu, down arrow until you hear detailed address ccards and enter on it. After doing this you will be able to hear your contact info after pressing CTRL 3. Remember to make sure that detailed address cards is checked. I hope this helps? If not, sorry.

I got the size off. I couldn't see who is in my address book. I did ctrl 3, and it said contacts, but when I arrow down it said view cards checked. I tried to arrow down, but it did nothing. I couldn't get out of there. I know I have some contacts, because when I open up an email to send off I can do the first letter of a name, and it is in there. All you said to do about the links didn't work. Do you have any more things for me to try? Patti Hello Patti, I am using Outlook 2007, which is actually Outlook 12. However, I am quite sure the steps for performing the functions you asked about are the same if you use Outlook 11. How do I make the link in an email work? You can list links using insert with F7 and press enter on the link you want to activate. If that doesn't work you can try tabbing to the link and pressing enter key. If those methods don't work you should move the cursor directly on to the link, press application key and arrow down to the "open link" choice. Press enter on that choice. How do I shut off the size of an email? 1. Press Alt+V to bring up the view menu. 2. Use down arrow to the arrange by choice and use right arrow into the submenu. 3. In Word 2007 the menu choice for "custom" is in that submenu. Again, not being at a system with Outlook 11 on it I don't remember if the "custom" choice is in that submenu or in the current view submenu. If it is not in the submenu of "arrange by" then use right arrow at the "current view" choice and check its submenu for the "custom" choice. Press enter key to bring up the "custom" dialog. 4. Press spacebar on the "fields" button. 5. Use tab key a few times and you will find a list box of available items. Continue to use tab key until you find the "show these fields in this order" list. 6. Use down arrow key until you select the "received" choice. 7. Use shift+tab to the "remove" button and press spacebar. This will put the "received" item back into the "available fields" list. 8. Use tab key to the OK button and press spacebar. Continue to use OK if necessary to close dialog boxes. The location of the controls might be slightly different with Outlook 11 but you should find them quite easily. How do I see who is in my address book? In Outlook you can use CTRL+3 to move directly into your "contacts" list. Outlook uses "contacts" as your main address book. Use the keystroke when focus is in a list of messages in an open folder. Let me know if the above steps are not the same for your version of Outlook, and if that is the case I'll check a system at work tomorrow that has the earlier version of Outlook installed. Take care.
