Using 2003, Beta 2nd Refresh for 07.
In address book, the Display Name is the email address. My clients and
customers don't want this.
Can this be changed?? I have tried changing the form in contact manager,
but still no change.
Essentially, I would like email to have only the name of the addressee with
email address hidden. Can this be done??

In Outlook 2007, the Email Display As field shows both the familiar name and
the email address by default, just like in all other recent versions. If
yours show otherwise, then you set it that way. Set it to what you want.

You can hide the email address with the tool

"ChangeNames" (http://www.marchert.de/software.html#cn)

but the recipients will see the email address by double clicking the
display name.
