Autofill Country entry in Address Book records
Authored by: hamarkus on Sep 10, '08 12:18:06PM

I don't have this 'drop-down menu next to the address', how do I get it?
In the preferences I can select a country but this is a global selection that applies to all entries.

Autofill Country entry in Address Book records
Authored by: rycardo on Sep 10, '08 07:23:33PM
hamarkus,

First, make sure that your Address Book template has at least one Address field listed:
In Preferences -> Template -> Add Field -> Address
(if you don't see Address in this list, it's already part of your template)

Now when you add a new entry or edit an existing entry in your Address Book, and you click on the label for the Address (home, work, or other), you can click Change Address Format, which will show you a list of country formats to choose from.

Hope this helps,

Rycardo

I could have sworn that when I looked at that pop-up list yesterday the last option was not there...
(the only thing I did in between was to check the template in the preferences)

I don't have this menu either. Are you sure it's not a 3rd party plugin?

Whichever ... I'd like to have it.

You have to be in "Edit" - mode.
