After upgradng to Outlook 2002 from 2000 I get multiple
names in the TO box when I am trying to address an email
(obviously its one per email account).

Is there any way to just show the default email address
for each contact?
 
No. The Outlook Address Book has always displayed all electronic addresses.
You were most likely using the Windows Address Book before.
 
Thanks for your quick reply but I am a bit confused.

In the Internet Mail Only version of Outlook 2000 all the
email addresses in the Address book are under Contacts.
When I click on the TO button only 1 entry appears for
each person.

In the Internet Mail Only verion of Outlook 2002 I get
multiple listings for each contact depending on if they
have more than one email address.

If this can not be changed fine but its really annoying.

That explains it. IMO in Outlook 2000 used the Windows Address Book, not the
Outlook Address Book. Outlook 2002 does not have IMO mode and uses the same
Outlook Address Book that all previous version of Outlook used. Most users
prefer that all electronic addresses be listed and available to them in the
address book rather than having only the default. You might want to consider
Outlook Express. It uses the Windows Address Book too.
