yes,
Unless you have a terrible time remembering the names of these people, why
not just use the method suggested earlier to make it a little more
convenient for you? Set Tools/Option/Send to complete an address when you
begin typing it in the To, CC or BCC fields, and that's that. this is how
I've always addressed messages. I just begin typing the name of the person
in that field, and it's autocompleted for me, with the actual address
underlying the name even though it doesn't show in the field. Same for the
other fields. And if you want to send to more than one addressee in any of
those fields, do the customary thing of separating the addresses names with
a comma.
It seems that would be a nice, simple way to do this. Do you feel you
really need to refer to your address book at times like this? If so, I can
understand why you wanted this other method, but it doesn't work for me,
either But as I'm satisfied with my usual method, I'm not that
disappointed, only puzzled.
sho.

Going to Jerry's idea
I am un able to get this to work now that I have tried it? I liked the
idea, but when I try it I am unable to get the address to post to the
To field or CC field or BC field?
Any more ideas?
Dick
