Default How do I stop fax numbers from appearing as addresses?

I don`t know why.

There is a tool from Ken Slovak to change the telephone numbers, please
see: http://www.slovaktech.com/phonechanger.htm. I don`t know if this
tools hides faxnumbers, too.

There is another way to hide faxnumbers: If you have exported your
contacts to excel change the header from the "Business faxnumber" to
another telephone field which is not in use.

Thanks for the great kludge, Peter.

This has been a problem for many many years. Why hasn't MS fixed it?

Hello Riggs,

export your contacts to excel and add some characters to all faxnumbers
(for example "fax: +49 (911) 12345678"). Then import them again to
outlook.
