You can edit the Display as field in each contact by opening each one, or by
using Phone List and editing directly on each cell of that column, which you
probably need to add to that particular view.

Thank you!

Regarding #2 - what determines whether the "TO" field is displayed by the
recipient's mail client as "Display name" address or as simply "Display
name"?

Can we (the sender) decide this?

I want the Sender to see "Display Name" ONLY when they receive the message
in the "TO" field.

Or is this a function of the recipient's mail client?

Many thanks!!!

I need to know:

1. What function does the "Display as" field have? Someone
mentioned in an earlier post that it is of little consequence. What
is this field for then? I thought it was the field that "displays" to
the sender their name as indicated in that field, when you use their
email address. Is that incorrect?

It's a convenience for the sender. It displays exactly what the sender
wants to see for that contact to make it easier to remember who the
contact
is.

2. If this field is not the one that does this - how do I send an
email to a person, so that when they receive the email - only their
"name" is showing in the "To" field. I know this can be done because
I've received emails both ways - with my name and email address,
email only, or just name. How do you set this?

The Display As field will also appear in the To field of the recipient.
Outook will transmit a To field of

"Display name" address

which should be displayed by the recipient's mail client either as shown
or
as simply "Display name".
