How do I get Outlook e-mail field to display e-mail, not name
My Outlook 2003 displays name in the e-mail field rather than e-mail. How do
I get it to show me the e-mail instead of the name. It shows name even if no e-mail address for that contact.

How were these Contacts created? It sounds like you might have imported
them. Did you? Did they ever display correctly? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "hansgast" wrote in message ... My Outlook 2003 displays name in the e-mail field rather than e-mail. How do I get it to show me the e-mail instead of the name. It shows name even if no e-mail address for that contact.

How do I get Outlook e-mail field to display e-mail, not name
I imported them from Outlook Express. I am a recent convert.
I should point out that they were first imported from Express to Outlook 2000 on my old laptop, then imported from old laptop to new laptop which has outlook 2003. Symptom started with Outlook 2000. Displayed logically in Express. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: How were these Contacts created? It sounds like you might have imported them. Did you?

How do I get Outlook e-mail field to display e-mail, not name
No wonder. Rather an important detail to have left out and make us try to
guess. No solution known. Importing Contacts does not work well. There is a slim chance that repairing your PST file might work, emphasis on slim. If not, recreate your Contacts, and never import them again. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "hansgast" wrote in message news  I imported them from Outlook Express. I am a recent convert.

How do I get Outlook e-mail field to display e-mail, not name
This is not a data problem. It is a DISPLAY problem.
In most of the contacts, the e-mail address is in the field, but Outlook won't display it unless I dig way down into the individual contact. My guts tell me there should be a preference somewhere to address this. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: No wonder. Rather an important detail to have left out and make us try to guess.

Nope. You must manually populate your Email Display As field. It was not
created correctly during the import. Sometimes just opening and saving the Contact will reset it. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "hansgast" wrote in message ... This is not a data problem.
