To select Primary Fields for a Contact:

1. Open the Detail View for the Contact whose Primary Fields you want to select. Notice that a name and telephone number appear in the Listing Header. Depending on the current field, the name that appears may be the Contact's first and last name or the Company name, and the telephone number may be any of the numbers in the available Phone fields (including Custom Fields). The current Primary Fields in the Name, Address and Phone blocks are underlined.

2. From the Use Detail Layout submenu of the Window menu, choose a Detail Layout that allows you to see as much Contact information as possible on your screen. If the current Detail Layout doesn't display all of the Contact information blocks at once, switch between different blocks by clicking the "dog ears" in the lower-right corners of the information blocks.

3. Place the pointer over the title of the First Name (First) field. The arrow pointer changes to the Primary Field Selector. This selector also appears when you place the pointer over the title of the Company field. Of these two fields, the underlined one is the Primary name, which appears in the Listing Header.

4. Click the field title you want to select as the Primary name for the current Contact. The field you clicked becomes underlined, and the newly selected Primary name now appears in the Listing Header.

5. Place the pointer over the title of the Home Address (Hm Addr) field. The pointer changes to the Primary Field Selector. The Primary Field Selector also appears when you place the pointer over the title of the Work Address (Wk Addr) field. Of these two fields, the underlined one is the Primary address.

6. Click the title of the address field you want to select as the Primary address for the current Contact. The field you click becomes underlined.

7. Place the pointer over the title of the Work Phone (Work) field.
The pointer changes to the Primary Field Selector over this field as well. It also appears when the pointer is over the Home Phone, Fax Phone or Mobile Phone field, as well as any Custom Fields you set to contain phone numbers. Of the available phone fields, the underlined one is the Primary Phone, which appears in the Listing Header.

8. Click the title of the phone field you want to select as the Primary telephone number. The field you click becomes underlined, and the newly selected Primary telephone number now appears in the Listing Header.

9. Press the Enter key. This saves your Primary Field settings for the current Contact.
