I would like to know if there a reasonably simple way to change the names of
the phone number drop-down fields in an Outlook contact?
I mean, I have absolutely no use for a "pager" number or a "Telex" or "ISDN"
number but I absolutely need a "Tech Support" number. You get the idea.
Thanks in advance.
Jim

Not what I wanted to hear but thanks for the reply.

Any 3rd party software that will let you accomplish this?

No, those names are hard-coded, it can't be done.

If you want to find and edit the Outlook program file that has that text
you're completely on your own. If and when Outlook doesn't run because of
that I hope you have a really good backup.
