Thanks Vince, apparently the company i work for decided that for some reason,
adding contacts in this way would be a security risk. They have apprently
prevented the users from being able to do this.

Thanks for the response though, i appreciate it.

I have office 2007 and I used to be able to right click, in Office 2003,
on a
person's email address when i open a message they sent to me and then
select
add this person to my contacts. Under 2007 though I dont seem to be able
to
do this. The only option I get is Copy. Is there a setting I need to
modify
or, is this a change to the application. If it is a change, whats the
easiest way then to add a new contact.
