I suspect that's because the addresses aren't resolved in the Contacts
record. However, there is another wrinkle you don't state. Outlook 2000
comes in two modes: Internet Mail Only and Corporate/Workgroup. In the
former, your Contacts folder may not be where your contacts are kept, since
it usually uses the Windows Address Book for its contacts. Click Help>About
on Outlook's menu and state which mode you're using.

Then the question remains: are you using the Contacts folder or are you
actually using the WAB for your addresses?
