automatic display of name
I'm converting from OL Express to Outlook 2007 so I'm familiar with OLE. In
Outlook 2007 how do I automatically display a name when partially entered. i.e. In the 'To' I enter "John" and "John Doe" is filled in. Secondly, I would like to get "John Doe" not . Is there an option window I can't find that will allow me to customize my email profile behavior? Thanks for the help! Kim

automatic display of name
Autocompletion in Outlook does not use your Contacts like it does in OE. It
uses a cache of names of previous recipients. So it won't work until you populate that cache by sending messages, and it will not allow you to control the format of the recipient name. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Kim" wrote in message ...
