Default Check Names?

I'm trying to help my dad over the phone with his OE6.

When he selects names from the address book, and then hits send, he gets
Check Name.

I've googled this, and gone to the microsoft site, and found:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/...mposesend.mspx

But, it doesn't explain why this is happening. I've tried many scenarios
on my own machine, like creating contacts with the same display name but
different email addys, and vice versa, but I can't get my own OE6 to
generate the Check Name question.

What's up?

Thanks very much.

Thanks PA. I also found this answer by searing this ng. Seems that it
worked for some, and not for others. It worked for me!
