Problem in E-mail Accts Wiz leading to 2 "Show name as" button
Defensive? Hardly. Posting a question clearly and accurately is the least
you can do. Saves us both a lot of time. You never mentioned we were talking
about Excel. That would have been nice to know.

Sound a little defensive, Russ. No way am I going to waste anymore time
on
this stupid, nonsensical, MS Excel bugginess. Good day, sir.

Please describe your problem more clearly and more accurately. What do
you
mean by "File as" is the reverse of
"Full name" ? That could mean anything. What does the Email accounts
Wizard
have to do with this? What does "cannot handle" mean? Exactly where are
names not appearing as you think they should?
Always provide your Outlook version when you post a question.

My Outlook cannot handle reversing the name so "File as" is the reverse
of
"Full name" when a name has degree letters such as M.D. or Ph.D.
Example: When the the "E-mail Accounts" wizard is configured correctly
(and
it was; I checked it at least 4 times), the "Full name..." field should
be
Joey Microsoft, M.D. and the "File as:" field should be Microsoft,
M.D.,
Joey
or possibly Microsoft M.D., Joey (I tried it with and without the
comma.).
Essentially, doctors of any kind will always be filed by thier first
names.
Is this a bug? Whether it is or isn't a bug, is there a way to fix it
that
a on-non-developer like me would be able to do? Should I forget it and
type
it in the way I want it?
