* View a map of your contact's location

If you're going to visit a client for first time, or you don't remember how to get there, you'll love this feature! When a contact record is open, click on Display Map of Address button and you will be connected to MSN Maps, and a map of contact's address will be displayed. Of course, this will only work if you have entered a street address! Unfortunately, mapping is only functional for addresses within USA.

* Print an address book

Many people who use a paper planner or address book don't see a need to enter any details in Outlook other than name and email address. Not only is it very easy to print out an address book right from Outlook, it offers a number of options for print layouts, including layouts for popular planners such as Day Runner, Day Timer, and Franklin Covey products.

By using Outlook as your address book, you don't have to put up with messy changes and corrections, or spend time copying out information every year, or whenever you replace your address book. Instead, you can just print new pages from Outlook. You can even specify which contacts you want printed if you don't need them all.

* Add a picture

Outlook 2003 has a new feature which allows you to add a picture to a contact record. To some this may seem like more of a toy than a tool, but if remembering faces is not your strong point, you'll appreciate being able to view a photo before you head off to meet someone!
