Reading through the latest MacAddict, they refer to Address Book having fields for spouse and children. Where the heck are these fields? I've searched AB help and looked at the add fields pull-down menu to no avail. Am I missing something?



I'm using 10.3.2 and AB 3.1.1 (v301).

    The default field in this area of Address Book is "friend" but you can edit this field's label to read "spouse" or any number of other relationships. I don't have access to Address Book right now, but I think it's the third group down in the editing field?

    Address Book for MacOS X 10.3.2 does indeed have a spouse field.

    Open AB.

    Chose menu item Card>Add Field>Related Names.

    You will see a new field listed as "friend." This is a pop-up menu.

    Click on the "friend" pop-up menu. "friend" appears in the center of the list.

    Immediately below "friend" is "spouse."

    Thanks, I found it. Don't know why this feature is so hard to find, or why I wasn't able to find it in the AB help section.
