Setting custom fields for your contacts

Custom fields can be used to record information in a contact that is not already included in the General, Business, and Personal tabs of the Contact dialog box. For example, you may want to include the names of a contact's children or favorite restaurant. The headings you define are displayed on the Notes tab of the contact where you can enter the corresponding information.

  1. From the Tools menu, select Options.

  2. Expand Addresses, then select Custom fields.

  3. Enter the headings you want to use in the Custom Fields section of the Options dialog box.
