How to change the display name?

Guest

We use Outlook 2007 with MS Exchange Server. Somehow one of the email
accounts was set up with a display name which is not the right one(mine).
I've changed the profile in Administration on the Server to show the correct
name. Now when mail is sent to her email address it says that it is going to
her (in the "to" field) and when she sends mail, it says it is from her. BUT,
in my Offline Outlook (mine) it still autocompletes with MY name instead of
hers, ie MyName<[email protected]> Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

Why not just delete the autocompletion entry?

Remove individual addresses from the autocompletion cache by highlighting
the entry when presented in the suggested names list (use your arrow key to
migrate to the entry) and then hitting your Delete key before you tab out of
the field.
To clear the entire cache, follow the instructions here:
