Can I globally clear an address book field ?
Hello, Is there any way that I can clear a single field in every AB record? I've just started using the Nickname field in macros, only to find that it's been occupied by some horrible ex-OL2K random string like this: ce9838d6-f141-4b77-a280-c5113de96572. I think that it came from some dodgy CRM addin that I tried once before I knew better.

It is possible to overwrite certain fields globally, but it is not possible to clear globally. If you just want to get rid of trash in certain fields you can overwrite the fields globally with an empty space. (Select AB items - select Properties [Alt+Enter] - go to the field you want to overwrite - enter an empty space - OK) This solution won't satisfy purists (a space in the field is not an empty field), and it does not work for the nickname field, because TB does not allow duplicates in the nickname fields. I would use Paul's proposition (mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]). -- Best regards, Cyrille mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [ TB! 2.11.02, Windows ME 4.90 Build 3000, Pentium 233Mhz with 95MB ] Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
