Creating and editing address, e-mail, or phone fields

When you create a field with an Address or Phone data type, the fields associated with the data type are created. The address fields are: Address 1-3, City, Country, State, and ZIP Code. The phone fields are: Phone and Extension. You can edit the fields individually, but you cannot edit the fields when you create them.

When you create a field with an E-mail data type, you must finish creating the field before you can edit it. You can only create an e-mail field for contacts.
