I really like the contact information tool, but have run into a dilemma and would like some advice.

I am using the hierarchical place feature:
ie, Country -> Province/State -> City -> Hospital/Church/School/Cemetary/etc

For home addresses, I was just using the City and putting the actual address in the comments field, and the phone numbers in the right spots.  When I generated the report with Contacts Hidden, none of the information showed, but it was getting harder and harder to pick the addresses from the Pick list as the contact list grew.

So I tried adding "Houses" at the same level as Schools, etc. and plugged in the actual address in the Place Details dialog screen.  I would label each House as the "Smith Residence", etc.  Now, when I generated the report with Contacts Hidden, none of the information showed with the individual, but under Places it would list exactly where the house was and you could zoom in on it with google maps.

I can understand that some of my relatives would be very nervous about having this information broadcast, especially if they have small kids or shady characters in the family.

Is there a way I can plug in all the contact info, but hide it, and not have the Houses/Schools appear in the Contacts list?  I don't mind if Cemetaries and Churches show.

Can someone right a custom report for this? or is there a radio button I can select to hide it?  or should i just wait until the update in 2008?
