Inserting Outlook Contact Information in Microsoft Word is very easy, you can even do it without exporting and importing Contacts Information from Outlook.
Word can pull the contacts directly from the mail client’s contacts list, or you can just add an Address Book button to the Quick Access Toolbar so that you can add contacts on-the-fly and at the touch of a button in any Microsoft Office application.
By interacting with Outlook directly from Word, you can add contacts into your documents in a matter of seconds.
Here are some methods to insert Outlook Contact Information in Microsoft Word.
How to Insert Outlook Contact Information in Microsoft Word?
Method one: Adding an Address Book Button to the Quick Access Toolbar
To add the button, click the arrow icon in the Quick Access Toolbar. This icon opens a drop-down menu that allows you to customize the Quick Access Toolbar.
Choose “More Commands” from the list of available options.
Click “Quick Access Toolbar” from the sidebar on the left and then choose “Commands Not in the Ribbon” from the “Choose Commands From” drop-down menu.
Choose “Address Book” and then click the “Add” button to add it to the Quick Access Toolbar.
Click “OK” to add the Address Book button.
Method two: Inserting Contacts from Your Address Book in a Word Document
To insert a contact, position the cursor where you’d like to add the contact information. Then, from the Quick Access Toolbar, click the “Address Book” icon you added.
Contact names should appear. In our test case, we only have a single contact, “Test Contact.” Click the contact you’d like to add, then click the “OK” button.
Now, any information that you have for the contact should appear in the document.
That’s all.
