totally frustrated

Thanks Bill & Babytub.  I installed the program from Windows essentials, much easier to work with but I’m still at a loss as to where & how my email address book (contacts) enter the picture and make it tto a place that I don’t have 5 steps to go through to get an address in the email I want to send.

And, Babytub, I haven’t looked at your suggestion yet but will do so in the am.

Thanks both for replying because it’ll probably take input like this to solve the crazed creation we have in our lap right now.
