I read somewhere that the headings for contacts in Address book under
Windows Mail would be customizable. Is this true?

Thanks for any thoughts,



Owkmann

Have you looked at the options while in the Contacts under Views and
Organize on the menu?

I don't have Vista yet. I've looked at some books at local bookstores, but
none of them were specific enough about customizing the Address Book. The
only information I could glean was from http://www.insideoutlookexpress.com/
about possibilities. So I was wondering if someone who actually had a copy
could help me.

Thanks,

Owkmann

The contacts are now separate and are no longer in a wab file. You can view
them in Explorer and you can customize the various fields that are displayed
in the Explorer window.

Also, the "contacts" pane that was present in OE has been removed and they
are now viewed only in a separate window.
