Can I tell Outlook to NOT put all 3 email addresses in the To: section? Does
Outlook have an option to choose which email address I want to use?

Umm NO email client puts ANY email addresses in the TO field unless you tell
it to.
Have you set up a customised form for email?

Well here's what happening, the autofill is not synonomous with the address
book so when I search for a contact using the search bar next to the address
book button on Outlook 2007 I find Jason but Jason isn't in the address book
or in autofill (nk2 file). So I click email from the contact full view and
all three of his email go into the to vs. letting me choose which one I want
to sent to.

thanks for helping.

If you enter "Jason" in the To field, then press Ctrl-K, what happens?

Hi Brian:

I did Milly's "Alt+K" and is seemed to work and just did your "Ctrl+K" and
it solved the Jason autofill issue. Yahoo! It also put Jason in the address
book I may post a video on how I solved these issues.

THANKS, Milly & Brian!
Darrell

P.S. I still wish Outlook didn't insert all emails in the To: field when I
click email under the communicate section of the ribbon is that just the way
it is or is there a fix so I select which email I want to send to?

It appears that Alt-K and Ctrl-K are the same thing: Check Names.

No it didn't. Outlook doesn't have an Address Book. The "Outook ADdress
Book is mere;y a view of your Contacts folders.

Ok so if there is no address book and its just a view of contacts how come
the address book doesn't have contacts in there that are in contacts and on
autofill?

Watch this new video for best explanation.

Because the address book only lists the electronic addresses in the Contacts
Folder and has nothing whatsoever to do with the autocompletion cache.

Thanks Russ that explains what I'm seeing but doesn't. I have contacts that
are not in the address book view but are emailable so-to-speak via autofill
and from the full contact view. My frustration is that I can't add certain
emails/contacts to a distribution list.

As I said, the autocompletion cache is completely separate and _should_
contain entries that aren't in the address book. It's simply a list of your
last 1000 recipients.
The second problem is easily explained only if you provide more
troubleshooting information. If a Contact that is in your Contact folder
does not appear in the address book view it simply means that Contact does
not have a resolved electronic address or resides in a Contacts Folder other
than the one you are displaying in the address book view.
