Managing and parsing names other than main contact

F

Fred Boer

Hi all:

The name of the contact in Outlook is nicely managed with that popup
dialogue box, and it takes care of managing first/middle/last names. But I
have a number of other persons that I am coping with in my custom form. What
is the best practice for managing these names? Do I need new custom fields
for "Title", "FirstName", "MiddleName" and "LastName" for each of these
people, to provide all the flexibility I need for mail merges? Or is there a
better way?

Thanks!
Fred

If your primary requirement is to be able to use each name part separately
in a mail merge then, yes, you'd need a separate custom property for each
part.
