.
A dialog box will appear, prompting you to enter the name you wish to give your file. By default, the file name is the user name followed by the “.trp” extension. You may change the location of the file if you wish, but doing so may take longer to locate it later. Enter a new name and click on OK.
It is a good idea, whenever you make changes to your address list, to save the address file to your computer’s hard drive. You can save as many address files as you wish. Each file can have a different set of addresses for different purposes.

Add Custom Address
An address can also be entered manually. Select the Add Address tool.
A dialog box will appear, prompting you to enter information for the address you wish to enter. The state can be either typed in or selected from the pull-down menu. The city field uses autofill to assist you in finding the city. As you type, the list of matching cities is narrowed down. You can type the entire name or select the city from the pulldown menu after you have entered the first few characters. When entering street names, do not enter any prefixes (e.g. N, or North) or suffixes such as road type (e.g. St., or Street). The street name must be entered exactly as it is written to find the street (e.g. if you are searching for Overland Heights, you would enter “OVERLAND” and the street would be found, but not if you entered “HEIGHTS” only). If the street you are looking for has a hyphen, replace it with a space. If the street name begins with “Rue” (e.g. Rue Andrée), you would need to enter “RUE” first.
When you are finished, select OK. A list of possible addresses is displayed. Confirm your selection by pressing OK.
The address is added to your address list.
