Hi!
I have posted a question similar to this at Outlook Code dot com and elsewhere on and off over the last nine months or so and have found generally that the question is not understood. So, this is another go!
On my copy of Outlook 2007 I have been using a .cfg file in ...\Office12\FORMS\1033 for well over a year. It was created by Neostorm. I was given it by Microsoft. By installing the code contained in the file in the correct manner - quite a simple process using Outlook's GUI - you end up with an additional field for message lists. The field is entitled "From email address" and, when you choose to insert it in a message list, it shows, as the name implies, the sender's email address.
By message list I mean the list of messages you are presented with on screen when you click, say, Inbox. Sometimes the list is referred to as a form. It contains fields or columns the contents of which describe the emails in the list. You can tell at a glance which email is from whom, when it was sent/received, etc. etc.
The standard sender's field, as supplied with the Outlook 2007 programme, is headed by default 'From' and will usually display not the sender's email address but the sender's Display Name. The new field shows only and invariably an email address. For myself, and I think some other Outlook fans, such a field is more practical than the standard version. However, most people will probably prefer the standard sender's field and its more human or friendlier contents ('Jane' as against 'sales.42d.exp[at]dizzyheightseu[dot]com', for example).
My question is this: as Neostorm have created code which will produce this new sender's field, and the code is not lengthy, can anyone skilled in these matters create the equivalent code for new To, CC, BCC and Have-replies-sent-to fields, the new fields also showing only an email address, but in this instance the recipient's, and never any Display Name? Judging from my many searches, there is no shortage of demand for such a facility.
Any comments on this will be read with great interest!
Shown under is the full existing code from Neostorm.
