Change File As Field for All Contacts
Hi!
I use Outlook 2003. Is there a code to run in order to change the "File As" fields for ALL contacts? I found a code for 2002 but not for 2003. I want it to change the appearence in the Address Book as well! Cheers, Filip

Change File As Field for All Contacts
The same code should work for both versions. If it doesn't, show the code you're using.

See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/vbabasics.htm for Outlook VBA basics. (You said you already had the code.)

Change File As Field for All Contacts
The sample procedure at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/convertfields.htm loops through all the contacts in a folder and changes the value of various fields field. The notes on that page discuss how to adapt the technique to change the FileAs value. In your case, you'd use:
