You must be doing something wrong, then.
Find, Advanced Find, and "Type a Contact to Find" always return any email
address (or portion thereof) I type in.
List the precise steps you are using and make sure you are searching in the
correct folder.

Russ,

Thanks for the response. The Advanced Find doesn't seem to recognize the
email field in the Contact forms. I have been looking for the "Type to
Find a
Contact" field, but haven't yet. Could you point specifically where to
find
it? It isn't listed in the Help File that I could find, either. Thanks.

Try Advanced Find. Also, the "Type to Find a Contact" field will return
email addresses.

To which "Find" feature might you be referring?

Why doesn't the email field in Contacts of Outlook 2000 show up for
the
"find" feature for searching? How can I get it to do that? Thank
You.


In Outlook 2000 the Contacts folder has many fields: name, address,
company, etc. If I want to find information for one of those fields, I
go
to the top of the screen to "Find" and it will search for it. However,
if
I have a contact form for which I don't have a name, but I do have an
email address filled out in the email address field of the form, it
won't
find it. Thanks.
