Hi,

Using Outlook 2003 with an Exchange server backend. I just gave my boss a
new computer with Outlook 2003, his previous computer had OL 97 I think.
He's noticed that when he looks at the address book there is a column called
"Display Name" and that for some of his contacts it's displaying the email
address and for others it's displaying the contact's name. He wants them
all to be consistent and display the contact name.

I'm pretty sure that the Display Name column in the address book is
populated from the Display As field in the contact details. Short of making
him manually change each of his contact's Display As field is there a way to
automate this process? Is there an option somewhere in OL that regulates
this like the File As field?

I'm guessing there is a way to accomplish this using macros but that will
take some work I'm sure.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Linn
