Outlook - Address Book

If I try to enter an Email address from the Address Book into the cc or bcc,
it always adss it to the "TO" line. Have to cut and paste it where I want it
to go. What am I doing wrong.

We don't know how you are currently doing it or which version you have. So
please explain your method and be very exact as we can't see what you are
doing.

Did it ever work the way you expected?
What changed since then?
Which version do you have?

Sorry - should have told you I use Outlook 2003.
It has never worked the way I expected. That is, to click in cc or bcc, then
select a contact and double click it.

Why are you doing it that way? Click on the CC or BCC button, the address
book is brought up. Add the address you want to the field.

Well it should do - it's worked that way at least since Outlook 2000
AFAIK.....
