I need to update the "Display As" field for every contact in an
address book containing well over 2000 contacts.

I linked the Contact table from Outlook into Access but the table does
not contain the "Display As" field. The table does however have a
"Display name" field but that is not the same data found in the
"Display As" field.

What is the best way to access and update the "Display As" field
without having to manually open, edit, save & close each contact
individually?

I'm using Outlook 2002 SP3 & Access 2002 SP3.

Thank you,
Joe Lombardo
 
The Email Display As field is a derived field. It could only be changed
programmatically. I'd try posting in a programming group to see if anyone
has developed a way to do it.
 
Thanks Russ, I've posted my problem to the
microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba group
