When I send e-mails from Outlook, I need to type in the name into the "To..."
field. How can I just type in a nickname and have it pull up the name(s) that
way, to make sending messages easier?
 
when you add to the ADDRESS BOOK/CONTACT List--- use the nickname and enter
the correct email address. For example, I have for my dad:
Daddy and then his email address. When I type an email to him I just enter
in the TO line: Daddy and it pulls up his address. Make sense? I have most
of my address book with nicknames or what they do because I can remember them
better that way than their names, sometimes, i.e. yard guy......refills
meds.....etc
 
You must select Suggest names when composing email in Tools, options, email
options, advanced email options. You also have to designate your Contacts
list as an Address Book and then you need to enter the nickname in the
contact's entry. I use the "display as" field to enter a nickname.
