TMGR: Cannot Use Address Book from Team List View (153348)

SUMMARY

In Microsoft Team Manager, the Team List view is the only view that does not provide a way to show the Address Book when you insert a new person. You must manually enter all information when adding a person in this view.

MORE INFORMATION

In all views, except the Team List view, the Insert menu's People command shows the Add People form, where you can enter the person's full name in the Full name box, or enter the person from the Address Book by clicking the Address Book button. You can enter multiple people by separating their names by commas in the box, or by selecting multiple people from the Address Book.

In the Team List view, the Insert menu's People command does not show the Add People form. Instead, it inserts a blank record at the selected row, and then puts a blinking insertion point in the first column, waiting for information to be entered. Note that the Full Name field is required and must be present in the table to insert a person this way.

WORKAROUND

If you want to use the Address Book to insert a new person, follow these steps:

Switch to any view except the Team List view. For example, click the People tab, click the arrow on the left end of the view banner, and then click Profile Information.
On the Insert menu, click Add People.
In the Add People form, click the Address Book button.
