I've tried to change the "display as" field, but it always resets to as in
the "full name" field. (When I send to a contact, o nthe "to:" field ends
up
showing the "full name", instead of the "display as" name I've tried to
save. What am I doing wrong?

Is there a way where I could assign "nick names", so it's easier to
identify
contacts rather going through a list of the same first names or last
names?
each time?

thanks.
