FileAs Option
|
|
The FileAs option indicates how you want the contact's FileAs field to be brought over to Outlook/Exchange. Apart from quite a few standard FileAs options, a new Build FileAs option is now available where you can build a string from the fields in the contact. This string can be anything from the variables in Outlook/Exchange. Here's a look at the build interface:

Syntax rules of the Build FileAs string:
|
- All fields must be between right brackets, i.e. "[" and "]".
|
-The variable and any static text related to the variable is encapsulated between the "<" and ">" symbols.
|
-If the field is empty, the text in the "<" brackets is not displayed.
|
-If you want text to be displayed all the time, enter the static text between the full field representation "< ...>"

Examples:
|
<[Firstname]> <, [Lastname]>
|
This will generate First, Last. However, if Lastname is empty, the comma ',' will not be displayed
|
|
<[Firstname]>, <[Lastname]>
|
This will generate First, Last. If Lastname is empty, you will get First, with a comma
