Default How do I stop unwanted changes to the Outlook "Display As" field?

The "Display As" field in Outlook 2003 Contacts often independently reverts
from the display name entered, to simply the email address.

Has anyone else had this problem with Outlook 2003 Contacts.

How do I stop this unwanted change?

Thanks

You can't control it. Delete the Contact Record and recreate it from scratch
so it will use Outlook 2003's default setting for Email Display As...
