When I open Outlook 2003 I see a screen with my folders listed down the left
side of the screen. Below the folders are tabs/buttons for Calender,
Contacts, etc. When I click on the Contact tab a view opens on the right side
titled "Contacts" which is a table with columns labled with fields that are
part of the total contact entry. I selected four of these to be shown on my
screen: File As, E-mail, Company, and Full Name. I did not select any of the
other choices for now such as phone or fax numbers, address, assistant, etc.
all fields within the total possibilities of each contact entry.

The first column is called File As and it shows the File As entry from the
contact. I have chosen to show this in the Last, First format.

The second column is called "E-mail" which I would like to show the actual
E-mail address entry from the contact. But in my case for almost all lines in
the table also shows the name in Last, First format.

Third is Company which shows the company entry if I have entered one.

Forth column is Full Name which also shows Last, First.

If I double click on any line I open the full contact entry. On the right
top of that sreen is a field labled "E-mail" which contains the actual e-mail
address of the contact. Why does this actual e-main address not show in the
table that lists all the Contacts I have?

You mentioned the Address Book which opens with my contacts when I click on
the To: or Cc: fields in a mail note I am trying to send. The address book
shows name as Last, First and then it shows what will appear in the mail
note's address field which is:
Last, First(Last, First).
A very few entries show:
Last, ).
I would like for all the entries in the Address Book to show the latter form
and for that to show up on the actual note when sent.

The mail that I do send does go to the correct address but I would like to
see it before I select the person named.

Does this help you to understand what I see on my computer with Microsoft
Outlook 2003?

No such view appears in any version of Outlook when you click on Contacts.
Are you perhaps referring to the address book view? If so, then you need to
set your Email Display As field correctly for each Contact.

I thought I was pretty clear. In Outlook 2003 when I click on Contacts a
list
appears with the columns: File As, E-mail, Company, and Full Name. I
arranged
this view.

File As shows the name in Last, First format. So does the Full Name
column.

For almost all of the entries in the E-mail column the name (Last, First)
also shows, not the E-mail address which is on the contact entry. A few
entries show the E-mail address. How do I make all the lines show the
E-mail
address?

I have some contacts with multiple addresses and I would like to see the
E-mail address next to the File As field when I open Contacts. I have
arranged the "E-mail" column next to "File As" but in almost all cases
it
shows the same name as in the File AS field. The E-mail address is
properly
entered on the contact card. What am I doing wrong?
I am using Outlook 2003 on Vista
