Default Display of contact person's name in Outlook 2002

I actually thought this situation might be relvant for some people...
for example, you cc you Dad in a message, but you don't want people to see
"Dad" on the addressees list, yet you want to type "Dad" when you send him a
letter. Or say if you use a fond nickname with you girfriend (/boyfriend), or
just a weird handle between friends. It's not always fit that other people
will see that.

And is there a way to "program" the auto-completion for this purpose?
(in a way that outlook supports of course or some workaround, not by
manually changing the cache files...)

Thanks,
Roee.

Outlook has no such feature. I've never seen anyone who needed it.
Autocompletion seems to suffice for most of us.

Hello,

I would like to add a contact person to an email by writing his nickname
(instead of his real name, and assume this nickname is used only by me) in
the "To:" field, but I don't want the other persons that receive that
email
will see his nickname, but his real name.

I tried using the nickname and the real name alternatively in the "File
as:"
and the "Display as:" fields in the contact card but either the nickname
wasn't regonized when I typed it in the "To:" field of the message or it
was
regonized but was also displayed to the other addressees.

How can I do this?

Thanks,
Roee.
