When I go to send a new e-mail, my current Outlook setup displays the
Addresses as "Fred (E-mail 1)", despite me adding descriptive entries in the
contacts list.

Is there any way to change:

Fred (E-mail 1)
Fred (E-mail 2)
Fred (E-mail 3)

Into:

Fred (Home)
Fred (Work)
Fred (Uni)

(I.E. As per the descriptions I have set up)

Or:

Fred (Fred@Home.com)
Fred (Fred@Work.com)
Fred (Fred@University.org)

(I.E. the actual e-mail addresses)

Any help will be greatly appreciated,

Thanks,

John

That would depend on your Outlook version.
The (email) designation following the address can not be removed through any
of the menu or options screens.  Instead you must modify the resources of
the contab32.dll file. See:
