Russ Seriously this is an ongoing issue with Microsoft, how difficult can it
be to get a company name to default if it exists. The Gmayor option is too
complex for the average user and all the method's that start with Outlook are
more than 10 steps. This is hardly making the users experience simpler!

Seems simple enough to me. Modifying Word's AddressLayout is pretty
straightforward. It even supports conditional formatting so that the field
appears if it is populated and suppressed if it isn't. I haven't found many
people who can't figure it out by reading the instructions.
Were you expecting Word to provide a GUI interface for every possible
address configuration users might want? Just how bloated do you want these
programs to be?
