660 Chapter 22 Store and Access Contact Information


You can view an address book in many different formats. You can choose any standard
view from the Current View gallery on the Home tab of the Contacts module.

The Current View gallery of the Contacts module.

Each view presents information from your contact records either as cards or in a list:
● Business Card This view displays the business card associated with each contact
record—either the default card created by Outlook or a custom card if you have
one. Business cards are displayed in alphabetical order by first or last name,
depending on the File As selection.
● Card This view displays contact information as truncated business cards that include
limited information, such as job title and company name.
● Phone This view displays a columnar list including each contact’s name, company,
and contact numbers.
● List This view displays a columnar list with contact records arranged in groups.
You can choose the grouping you want from the Arrangements gallery on the
View tab.

Buttons in the Arrangements gallery of the Contacts module are available only while contact
records are displayed in a list view.

In any list view, you can expand and collapse the groups or select and take action
on an entire group of contacts. You can also enter information directly into any
contact record field displayed in the list.
