How do I change default search from name to company @create new em
by Q2hyaXMgR2V0eg » Sun, 04 Jan 2009 00:20:09 GMT
If I am in my Inbox and need to create a message to multiple contacts (that I
know by company not by a sales rep name), the TO field links to the address
book and only supports a search by contact name. How do I set the default
address search to find a company rather than the contact name?
My current work arround is to select companies in the contacts and do a
create message. This is very cumbersome as they are often specific companies
rather than categories based on scope of work. I avoid DLs as they are just
about useless in their current design.

1.change the default company name used in file properies
I entered my name and company name when I registered Office. These are
hidden somewhere are are used to complete the Author and Company fields in
the file properties. Now my company has changed their name and I want to
change the default value. Where do I do this?
2.Change "file as" fields from default "first name" to company
I used a microsoft suggested method of correcting a problem that involved fax
numbers being intermixed with e-mail addresses in the address book. When I
imported the corrected contacts file back into outlook contacts, all of the
"file as" fields reverted to the first name of the contact rather than the
company name which I had set up when I originally entered the contacts. Is
there any way to change all of these (500 contacts) without opening each
contact and manually changing each one?
3.auto-populating the company name field when creating a new contact
I've been manually creating several new contacts all from the same company
and it's a bit tedious. Is there a way to use/create a drop down menu box to
help populate some of the various fields such as the Company name field or
others?
I've been copying/pasting the company name from a newly made contact to the
nxt new one I'm making.
Thanks-

5.2003: New Contact: Change default File As to: Company (First Last)
Happy Friday everyone.
I need to find a way to add or change the File As options when creating a
new contact in Outlook 2003. The end result I'm looking for is: Company
(FirstName LastName). I know outlook will do this in reverse: Company
(LastName FirstName) but this is not what I'm looking for.
I've spent hours searching with Google, and people have asked this for
years, but I have not seen a single answer out there yet. A few people
recommended buying some German application that assists with Outlook
contacts, but that is not an option as I need this for work.
Anyone have a clue? I am moderately competent with computers, so could
handle customizing Outlook if someone got me pointed in the right direction.
Thanks!
