The contact name element is where you can view or edit the contact name and position. See the Add New Contacts section of this chapter for more information.

 

 

Contact Properties

There are two ways to open the Contact Properties dialog to edit a contact record.

 

1. In the Contacts database list on the left double-click the blue selected contact name.

 

2. Select the contact name in the Contacts database list on the left.

 

Then click the Edit button in the toolbar below.

 

 

 

The Title, Suffix and Position fields allow you to select a value from the drop down menu or type a new value into the field. If a value typed into one of the fields does not already exist in the database, you will be prompted to add it.

 

Adding a New Position Value

 

1. In the Contact Properties dialog type a new Position value in the text box.

 

2. Since the "SALES REP" value does not already exist in the database the Confirm dialog displays.

 

3. If you would like to add the new position to the database click OK in the Confirm dialog.

 

Title drop down menu.

 

 

Suffix drop down menu.
