Answer» I use Outlook. One of the kids was trying to retrieve her phone numbers and synchronized with Motorola Phone Tools. I don't know if that has something to do with my problems, but now I can't add a new e-mail address in my contacts. I can put in the name, phone, whatever, but when I type in the e-mail address and tab to the next field, the e-mail address disappears! I've uninstalled/reinstalled my Office suite to no avail. Any IDEAS? I'm perplexed. If you use windows xp or vista, use system restore. Restore to a date just before the problem started happening. Usually that will fix problem, but let us know how it goes.I tried that before...didn't work. Tried again today twice, going back to different dates. No GOOD. I am at a total loss here.

Well, apparently trying out other software that gives about the same or additional features for which she is COMFORTABLE with and does not have problems would be good.
