You should be presented with a list of likely candidates, which gets shorter the more you type. (If his name is Joe Czebrinski, typing 'Jo' will bring up all your contacts called John and Joseph and Jonathan and Josephine. 'Cz' will probably not bring up as many.) Just click on the right one, and do the same again for more addressees. In time, you'll find it's quicker than having that list on the left. -- Noel |

Quote: > Your example is not correct. > Typing brings up a list of the typed letters in first name, last > name, display name, and email address. The list will also have > Jones, Johnson, joe1956@xxxxxx, john146@xxxxxx idea was to show that if you could remember a few letters of some of the contact's details, the word wheel would find that contact. The more unusual your search string, the fewer candidates presented. It will also find matches in the domain name and in words in the Notes field. Try it: putting in 'ms' will bring up all your contacts with an MSN address. And if you put 'abc' in the Notes field for a contact, 'ab' in the word wheel will find that contact (and any you may have in the media). It's only strings at the beginning of the term that count, though - 'bc' wouldn't find the contact with 'abc' in the Notes field, nor would 'sn' find your MSN contacts. -- Noel |
