Hi Jane I may be way off base. Here are several suggestions. I may have misunderstood your request. John To set up a conference call from the Address Book If you use Microsoft NetMeeting or other conferencing software, you can store conferencing account information (such as e-mail and server addresses) along with other contact information and then make a conferencing call directly from the Address Book. 1.. In the Address Book, double-click the contact name. 2.. On the NetMeeting tab, type the Conferencing Server address. (If NetMeeting is not installed, this tab is named Conferencing). 3.. Type the Conferencing Address for the contact. This address must be the one used for conferencing, which could be different from the contact's e-mail address. 4.. Click Add to add this information to the contact's properties. Now, whenever you want to initiate a conference call, you can click Call Now on the NetMeeting (or Conferencing) tab of the contact's properties. Note a.. You can have multiple e-mail addresses and directory servers listed for one contact.

I am sorry John.. I didn't explain it very well at all :( In the Address Book part of OE6 I need to add a name and email address to a list of other names and addresses. Under the "shared contacts" tab I have several "lists". The list contain many names & emails listed under a name. So when you choose the name of the list then a message is sent to all who are on the list. I need to add a name to one of these lists & I cannot figure out how to do it.. sorry to have not been clearer.. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Contratto" <1461edenway2@comcast.net> To: <gen-comp-tips@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2008 2:03 PM Subject: Re: [GEN-COMP-TIPS] OE 6 Add Name to Shared Contacts > Hi Jane > > I may be way off base.

Jane If this does not work I will be surprised To add a contact to an existing group 1.. In the Address Book list, double-click the group you want. The group's Properties dialog box opens. 2.. You can add people to the group in several ways -and in some cases you can add them to your Address Book as well. a.. To add a person from your Address Book list, click Select Members, and then click a name from the Address Book list. Click Select, and then click OK. b.. To use a directory service (use the drop-down list at the end of the text box to see directories you have added to Outlook Express), click Select Members, and then click Find. Select a directory service to search, enter your search criteria, and when you find the person, click Select, and then click OK. This person's name and e-mail address is added to your Address Book. c.. To add a person directly to the group without adding the name to your Address Book, type the person's name and e-mail address in the boxes provided in the lower half of the dialog box, and then click Add. d.. To add a person to both the group and your Address Book, click New Contact, fill in the appropriate information, and click OK. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jane Gillespie" <gillespie4491@bellsouth.net> To: <gen-comp-tips@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2008 6:18 PM Subject: Re: [GEN-COMP-TIPS] OE 6 Add Name to Shared Contacts >I am sorry John..
