Hi,

I just upgraded my computer to Outlook 2003 and started
with my old .PST file in the new program. Things are
*mostly* OK, but one thing is that all the "Display as
fields" (the one under the email addres field) seem to
have changed to the name and then the email address. Is
there anyway to do a globabl conversion to get these to
display just the email address--that's the way they were
and I'd like to have it back that way.

TIA.

No way to change that globally, just individually.
This is one of those areas where Microsoft can't seem to win. Half the users
liked having the familiar name as the Display Name, half preferred the
actual e-mail address--so they gave us both in Outlook 2003, and still
people don't like it.
They need to make this a configurable option so everyone can be happy.
