Default Change default setting on Outlook 2007 Contacts form

Using Outlook 2003, I changed the default address setting from Business to
Home. I can't find how to do that using Outlook 2007.

You must modify the Contact form to do that, even in Outlook 2003. See if
this helps:

Default Change default setting on Outlook 2007 Contacts form

Thanks for responding, Brian. Guess I'm just out of luck. 2007 is nothing
like 2003. I read the link you suggested; it was for versions 97 thru 2000. I
have directions for 2003 and was using that before I "upgraded" to 2007. I
also clicked on an adjoining link and it did show some information for 2007
but it looked like programming language to me...I am not that knowledgeable.

Thanks again for responding.

You should ask in a programming group. Creating custom forms is entirely
different in Outlook 2007, but they'll know how to do so there. Or you could
try the Help Files.

Thank you. The programming group is a good suggestion. I did read the Help
files; the fact that I am in this forum will tell you that I didn't find any
help I could use there.

Thanks again.
